About Crocodile Island
Crocodile Island is a small Boracay reef site with a shallow wall, canyons, and overhangs that rewards a careful drift or a relaxed reef pass. The site mixes colorful coral structure with classic Philippine reef life, so it works well as a macro-friendly dive that can also turn up larger reef animals when the current and tide line up. It is best approached as a steady, guided boat dive with close attention to the flow.

Scuba Diving
Depths range from 10 to 30 meters with wall terrain plus canyons and cave-like features.
