J.J.
Shore-access macro reef with shallow coral and dense life.
Siquijor coastal reef with a sandy slope, tide-sensitive shore access, and strong macro interest when the water is calm.
About J.J.
J.J. is a shore-accessible macro site on the Siquijor coast with a sandy slope, shallow coral patches, and dense reef life close to the beach. It works best as a relaxed scuba or calm snorkel session when the tide is high enough and the west coast is not getting hit by seasonal surf. The site rewards slow searching rather than big-wall diving.
