About Aquarium
Aquarium is a Cebu drift dive in Boljoon, with a sloping reef, a sandy bottom on the deeper side, and healthy hard and soft corals along the north face. It feels more like a slow reef-reading dive than a race, with a steady mix of structure and small life. Frogfish, squid, lobster, turtles, banded sea snakes, and spotted rays are all part of the draw, so the site rewards patient divers who like scanning the reef rather than chasing big-ticket drama.
