About this dive site

This dive site, Talisay Dauin Beach, is a diverse marine environment located a mere 100 meters from Azure dive resort. It seamlessly blends sandy slopes, expansive seagrass beds, and vibrant coral reefs, offering easy navigation for divers. The site is a natural wonder, celebrated for its unique combination of ecosystems rather than a specific historical event or story.

Talisay Dauin Beach is particularly renowned as a haven for macro photographers and critter hunters. Divers can regularly spot an impressive array of elusive macro superstars, including various species of seahorses, frogfishes, and ghost pipefishes. The abundant seagrass and coral formations also host numerous nudibranchs, crabs, shrimps, and a multitude of small reef fish, making every dive a treasure hunt.

The best time to visit Talisay Dauin Beach for optimal diving conditions is generally during the dry season, from November to May, though macro life is consistent year-round. Its shallow to medium depths (average 10m, max 20m) and typically mild currents allow for extended bottom times, perfect for observing and photographing its unique inhabitants. Both scuba divers and freedivers will find this site rewarding, with freedivers particularly enjoying the shallower reef and seagrass areas.
