    Edmund Reef, off Palawan, offers a classic Philippine coral reef dive. We've found the hard coral formations here particularly impressive, building into substantial walls and bommies. Expect to see the usual reef suspects – parrotfish, wrasse, and the occasional turtle drifting past. It's a solid choice for a relaxing dive, well-suited for those looking for healthy coral and a gentle current.
