Lys Shoal
Why dive here
Lys Shoal is a pinnacle dive where divers can encounter sea turtles and sperm whales. Water ranges 27-30°C, warmest May, June, July.
Lys Shoal is a good drift dive in Palawan. We’ve seen a lot of schooling pelagics here, like jacks and barracuda, moving along with the current. The coral has some good sections, mostly hard corals, holding onto the exposed areas. It’s best for divers comfortable with current, looking for bigger fish action.
