About Alona Reef
Alona Reef is a boat-access wreck dive off Panglao with a wall-to-slope approach before the wreck. The site suits certified divers who want a clear guided profile, a bit of route discipline, and a mix of reef structure, small caves, and fish activity rather than a shallow cruise. Plan it as a deeper scuba dive with steady buoyancy and gas awareness.

Local Intel For Alona Reef
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Boat drop to a wall-and-slope wreck line. A light helps around the wreck and small caves, and the dive works best with steady buoyancy and gas planning.
Freediving
Not a practical freedive target; the main feature is a deeper wreck profile better suited to scuba.
Snorkeling
Not a snorkel-first site; the useful part of the dive sits well below comfortable surface-only viewing.
