    Gaven Reefs South offers a straightforward dive on a coral reef in Palawan. We’ve spotted green turtles here, gracefully moving among the formations. It’s a decent option for those looking for a relaxed dive away from the more crowded spots, especially if you appreciate the quieter side of the reef. We’d suggest it for divers who prioritize spotting individual creatures over dramatic topography.
