About this dive site

This dive site, located fronting Licong beach, offers a very nice drift dive along a beautiful wall. The dive typically involves following the current along the vibrant coral wall. It starts with a shallow plateau around 4 meters deep, then drops off to 30 meters, providing varied topography suitable for different skill levels. There is no specific historical information or story provided for the site.

The marine life at Licong is rich and diverse, making it excellent for observation. Divers can expect to encounter a variety of macro life, including nudibranchs, ghost pipefishes, and various shrimps. In addition to these smaller creatures, the site is also frequented by turtles and offers opportunities to spot pelagic species from the blue.

Licong is suitable for all levels of divers, from beginners to advanced, thanks to its varied depth profile. While no specific best time to visit is mentioned, the Philippines generally offers good diving conditions during the dry season (November to May). It is also well-suited for freedivers due to the shallow plateau and accessible drop-off, and snorkelers can enjoy the shallow reef. Divers should be mindful of the currents typical for a drift dive.
