About this dive site

This dive site is located at Flower Island, also known as Large Bulucan Island, a picturesque resort island situated in northeast Palawan. It offers a conveniently accessible house reef directly facing the beach, making it an ideal spot for divers seeking a relaxing and straightforward experience. With its shallow depths, the site is particularly well-suited for beginners and those looking for easy, unchallenging dives without complex navigation.

The main highlight of Flower Island's underwater realm is the regular presence of green sea turtles, which can be observed feeding on the expansive seagrass beds near the shore. Beyond these meadows, a healthy and vibrant coral reef thrives, showcasing a rich diversity of colorful fish species, offering a glimpse into a lively marine ecosystem.

This dive site is highly recommended for snorkelers and freedivers due to its very shallow average depth and excellent visibility. It is a perfect location for those looking to enjoy marine life directly from the resort. The best time to visit aligns with the dry season in Palawan (typically November to May) for optimal conditions, though the house reef is generally accessible year-round for encounters with its resident turtles and fish.
