    The Gorgonian Channel at Tubbataha's North Atoll is a drift dive, best enjoyed by those comfortable with moving water. It's a wide passage, and if you hit the current right, you'll glide past impressive walls blanketed in large gorgonian fans. Look out into the blue for pelagics, though the real show is often along the channel edges.
