Description:

30 nautical miles South from Mactan Island and half way to the white sand of Alona Beach, Cabilao Island has some of the best diving in the Philippines.
Depth: Up to 40m(130ft) plus.
Visibility: Up to 40m(130ft).

THE LIGHTHOUSE: Straight bellow the light house on the North-Western portion of the island is a double drop-off. The first one goes down slightly to 25-30m(85-100ft) deep. Strewn with a good variety of hard and soft corals, massive Barrel Sponges and a large sandy area sheltering 2 species of Garden Eels, this spot is perfect for underwater photographers. Experienced divers, in the deep water of the second part, may have the chance to encounter Gray and Whitetip reef sharks or even Hammerhead Sharks.

TALISAY: At Talisay located in the North side of Cabilao, the vertical wall starting close to the surface is brightly colored by Crinoids hiking on Gorgonian Sea Fans, Coral Tables, blue and yellow Tube Sponges or even directly on the rocky edges of a multitude of small caves where brown Pipefish couples with orange flat tails have made their well-protected habitat.

SANDIGAN: Sandigan, the South-West part of the island is the starting point for 2 drift dives. Either to the North or to the East, beside a wall jumping beyond 40 meters with lots of Gorgonian Sea Fans, large Barrel Sponges, Elephant Ear Sponges and colorful Soft Corals. The reef, in a similar way as all around the island is animated by Lionfish, Sweet Lips, Snappers, Angelfish, Butterflyfish, a myriad of Blue Anthias, Coral Groupers, Bluefin Trevallies, Jacks and larger Groupers in deeper water. Reef Sharks, can be spotted resting in caves or under overhangs during the day.
