Panglao offers world-class diving across four main areas: the south, the north, Balicasag Island, and Pamilacan Island—each with its own character and marine life.
The south includes popular sites around Alona, Danao, and Libaong, featuring walls, sardine schools, sandy slopes, swim-throughs, and a small shallow wreck.
The north offers quieter, scenic diving at Doljo, Momo, and Napaling, known for coral gardens, impressive sea fans, walls, and Napaling’s famous sardine run.
Balicasag Island is a protected marine area famous for healthy reefs, dramatic walls, turtles, and large schools of jackfish and barracuda.
Pamilacan Island offers a more peaceful day trip, with three main sites featuring coral slopes, walls, turtles, nudibranchs, pipefish, and other diverse marine life.
What can you See Diving in Bohol Dive Sites?
Bohol offers some of the most diverse marine life in the Philippines, from healthy coral reefs and colorful macro life to schooling fish, turtles, frogfish, rays, and passing pelagics. With walls, sandy slopes, and coral gardens, every dive offers something different.

How to get to Panglao dive Sites
All dive sites around Panglao are easily accessible from our dive center. The northern and southern sites are considered local dives, usually reached by a short land transfer followed by a quick speedboat ride. You can book directly through the booking section above or contact us for alternative dates.
For something farther offshore, we offer two-dive trips to Balicasag and Pamilacan Islands. Balicasag is around 30 minutes away by boat, while Pamilacan takes about an hour. Both offer exceptional diving in more remote marine environments.
Visit our Balicasag Diving and Pamilacan Diving pages for more information and bookings. Balicasag permits are limited to 150 divers per day, so advance booking is highly recommended.
