DUCOMI is a macro pier dive under Bacong's concrete pier.
DUCOMI is a macro-heavy pier dive under Bacong's concrete structure in Negros Oriental. The pilings and nearby bottom are packed with coral, debris, and small life, so the dive is all about slow searching along the legs and under the overhangs. It suits photographers and patient divers who want a busy critter hunt with careful buoyancy and attention to boat and security activity.
