    金吾暗沙 is a dive site off Palawan where encounters with sperm whales have been reported. While we don't have extensive dive data for the site itself, the possibility of seeing these large cetaceans makes it intriguing. We'd suggest this spot for experienced divers hoping for a rare pelagic encounter, understanding that success isn't guaranteed.
