Shore reef and wall site with strong tide planning and macro life.
Marigondon Beach is a shore-access reef and wall site in Mactan that suits divers who like easy entry paired with real tide planning. A shallow reef leads into a vertical wall, with colorful reef fish, barracuda, snapper, frogfish, and other macro life around the corals. The site is best when you slow down, watch the tide, and treat the wall like a real plan rather than a casual swim.
