About Luca Sanctuary, Reef Village
Luca Sanctuary, Reef Village is a shore-access house reef in Dauin built around a long-running artificial-reef project. Reef Village structures, reef cones, and sunk wrecks create a layered dive that rewards slow macro searching, careful buoyancy, and patient reef circuits around steel, concrete, and coral-covered surfaces. It is the kind of site where small critters, reef fish, and larger visitors can all show up in the same dive.
