CAGPATING WALL DIVE

This particular dive site highlights it's 3 huge rock formations - thus it's name. Thick coral population. It displays a variety of colorful coral formation with the many rare species of marine life.


LAPUS LAPUS

The green lagoon leading to LAPUS-LAPUS strait.
As compared to its western twin, Lapus Lapus East has a steep slope and goes down to an average depth of 20 meters. The bigger boys of the sea hang out here. Facing away from the wall, catch a glimpse of pelagic like Tuna and Mackerel. Lapus Lapus East has its share of critters like nudibranch and the more camouflaged creatures of the sea like the frogfish.
