DIVE SITES 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8
Beatrice: This is a dive site known for its tantalizing beauty. But have you ever wondered how this spot got its name? Apparently during the early years of Scuba Diving in Anilao, the early adventurers discovered this and one of their lady companions was named Beatrice, They named the site after her. This is a favourite dive site in Anilao. It's actually on the northeast corner of Sombrero Island. One side of the rock is slope and then a mini wall. The other corner goes into a gradual slope or coral garden. This site can have ripping currents. When that happens you will see the orchestra of anthias dancing with the current. The reef top is at 7m and slopes to 25m. Best to stay at around 18-20m.

Bebot's Rock: This site is situated to the left of Balai resort facing land. It starts shallow 7m/20ft and slopes down gradually. Most of the corals and life are in 12m/40ft. Good for novice divers and can expect some current. The bottom composition is of corals and silt. So watch your buoyancy!

Cathedral: This is probably the most famous fish feeding dive site in Anilao. This is a favourite amongst dive instructors for graduation dives. The site is teeming damselfish, butterfly fish and surgeonfish feeding off your hands. They have been acclimatised to divers. In the Cathedral there is an abundance of staghorn corals. On the sandy patches garden eels and blue spotted rays may be seen. At 60ft there are two rocks and in between is a cross that was brought down by the former president Ramos. Behind the rocks the depth drops to 80ft. In the blue, you might be lucky and spot a school of open mouth mackerel passing by. Currents can be very strong in this site.
