This dive site, known as Corner, is situated on the southwest side of Pandan Island, Philippines. It features a distinctive steep slope characterized by impressive rock formations and canyons, which create natural shelters and interesting navigation paths for divers. While there's no specific historical context provided, its name likely refers to its geographical position on the island where currents may converge.
The diverse marine life here includes a wide array of reef fishes such as Bat fish, Trumpet fish, Parrot fish, Triggerfish, Moray eels, and Fusiliers. The topography also attracts larger pelagics like Mackerels, Trevallys, Groupers, and Snapper. The site boasts a healthy variation of corals and impressive big sea fans, some reaching up to 2 meters in diameter, contributing to a vibrant underwater ecosystem.
With a maximum depth of 20 meters and an average of 10 meters, Corner is suitable for divers of all experience levels, including beginners. Its relatively shallow average depth also makes it an excellent location for snorkeling and freediving. The combination of varied topography and rich marine life provides ample opportunities for both wide-angle and macro photography.
