    Cuttlefish Shawl in Tubbataha is where you’ll often find us drifting along a sloping reef. It’s a site that rewards patience, with cuttlefish frequently seen here, sometimes in pairs or even small groups out in the open. We’ve also spotted reef sharks patrolling the deeper edge. It’s a good spot for divers who enjoy a relaxed drift and appreciate the smaller, more elusive encounters.
