    Kalangaman Island offers gentle drift dives along its walls, often with good visibility. You’ll typically see schools of barracuda and trevally cruising in the blue, alongside occasional reef sharks. The coral growth is decent, with some gorgonian fans and soft corals adorning the deeper sections. It’s a comfortable dive for those looking for a relaxing drift and some pelagic action away from Malapascua’s main sites.
