The site is run as a guided boat dive from Eagle Point and is best handled by a local operator.
Beatrice Rock is a Sombrero Island dive where a sloping rock turns into a mini wall and coral garden. Strong current is part of the site character, so the best dives are guided and tide-aware, but the reward is dense reef life, vivid coral cover, and a mix of macro subjects and bigger fish action that keeps the site a favorite among Anilao divers.

Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Treat this as a current-aware site: plan for neap tides, stay close to the guide, and keep buoyancy tight when the current is running.
Access Restrictions
Best dived at neap tides with a guide who knows the site; strong current and rough surface conditions are part of the profile.
Legal Notes
Follow local marine-life protection rules and operator instructions; do not touch, feed, or chase wildlife.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Expect a sloping side, mini wall, and coral-garden corner; plan the dive around the current and the neap tide window.
Freediving
This is primarily a scuba site; only the calmest shallow sections would suit a very conservative freedive plan.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is not the point of this site except maybe in the shallowest calm water near the edge of the rock.
