Batangas Channel
This site is a shallow one, you will not find much more than 15m/50ft of water in this area but there is plenty of stuff to see. Big areas are covered with staghorn corals, some of the biggest barrel sponges you can find in Puerto Galera, huge green coral trees, and some very nice formations with big table corals. This site does often have strong currents and you can actually cover the whole channel in one dive, but the northern part down to San Antonio Village offers the best of this dive. Here the corals end, but seahorses can often be seen on the sandy bottom near the local school
