About Maniguin Island
Maniguin Island is a remote Boracay day-trip wall dive with a lighthouse-marked atoll profile, clear water, and a long boat run. The reef rim drops into vertical walls with sandy slopes between sections, so the site suits divers who want a bigger offshore profile, strong coral, and a lot of reef life in one outing.
