Stimpy’s - Siargao

Stimpy's offers a straightforward dive down to 18 meters, making it a good spot for newer divers finding their fins in Siargao. The reef slope is home to a steady collection of reef fish and smaller critters, often including nudibranchs and flatworms if you take the time to look. It's a relaxed dive, no strong currents usually, and a good intro to the area's shallower environments. We often recommend it for those getting comfortable with their buoyancy.
