Why dive here
With 554+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blacktip reef sharks, blue-spotted stingrays, manta rays and mobula rays (devil rays) - San Vicente offers some of Visayas's richest diving. Water ranges 28-31°C, warmest May, June, October.
San Vicente offers a straightforward dive to 20 metres, well-suited for beginners and those looking for an easy afternoon. The reef here is home to a steady collection of reef fish, we’ve often spotted sweetlips lurking under ledges and some nudibranchs if you’re looking carefully. It's a relaxed spot, good for honing buoyancy or just enjoying a gentle immersion in the Visayan waters.
