About this dive site

This dive site is located at White Beach, Moalboal, Philippines, known for its vibrant reef drop-off that begins just beyond a shallow reef flat. Divers can easily navigate along the wall, exploring the diverse topography that transitions from a gentle slope to a dramatic vertical drop. The site's close proximity to the beach makes it highly accessible for both shore and boat entries, offering a straightforward diving experience.

While White Beach is not renowned for the sardine run or an abundance of turtles found in nearby Panagsama, its colorful coral beds teem with thousands of smaller reef fish, creating a lively underwater ecosystem. Divers may also have the occasional opportunity to spot sea kraits gracefully moving along the reef, adding a unique encounter to the dive.

The best time to visit Moalboal for diving is generally during the dry season, from November to May, when water conditions are typically calm and clear. This site is particularly suitable for freedivers and snorkelers due to its accessible shallow reef flat (3m), while scuba divers can explore the drop-off down to 20 meters. It's a great choice for divers seeking a beautiful coral reef experience away from the busier large animal aggregations.
