Caceres South
Guided boat reef off Oslob with an overhang and fishy slope.
Boat-access shoal dive with soft corals, a cliff-like start, and a calmer-day profile that suits relaxed guided dives.
About Caceres South
Caceres South is a guided boat dive off Oslob on Cebu's southeast side, built around a cliff-like overhang at the start and a fishy slope that rewards a slower second half of the dive. The site is best planned as a calm-day boat profile with room to settle in before moving deeper, and it can still turn up whale shark passes when the water settles.
