Magting
Why dive here
With 82+ marine species recorded in the area - including manta rays, mobula rays (devil rays), whale sharks and pufferfish - Magting offers some of Siargao's richest diving. Water ranges 27-30°C, warmest June, August, September.
Magting offers a relaxed dive, good for getting your fins wet again or for less experienced divers. The reef here is healthy, though not dramatic, with plenty of smaller reef fish flitting between the soft corals. We've often spotted moray eels peeking from crevices and the occasional turtle gliding by. It’s a pleasant spot if you’re looking for an easy, unpressured dive.
