abundance in wide variety of corals, reef fish, bottom fish and
pelagic fish as well, also number one for finding very rare critters
that you can see only here in anilao and if you want to become number
one for underwater photography come to us we will show all kinds of
aquatic life that will help you win first prize. Most of the diving
in the Anilao area consist of coral slopes or steps of small
drop-offs and shallow coral gardens among sandy patches. Small
critters like shrimps, crabs, Weedy and Lacy Scorpion fishes, gobies
is profuse and cronies, lots of nudibranchs can be found everywhere.
Divers and snorkels alike have to contend with some fierce currents,
which are common in this area especially Mainit and Bahura. Snorkels,
novice divers and underwater photographers should check the tide
tables and try for slack tide for easy and more enjoyable diving.
Anilao is currently number 2 in the whole world when it comes to Top
10 Macro diving destination but since it has been declared one of the
MPA's or Marine Protected Areas with the help of local Bantay Dagat,
the growth in number of rare critters has been increasing dramatically.
