About Monkey Beach
Monkey Beach is a boat-based Puerto Galera reef with a colorful coral slope, a small wreck, and abundant macro life. The site is best known for its easy relaxed sections when current is light, but it can become much faster when the flow runs. It suits divers who want a mix of reef structure and small-creature hunting rather than a pure wall or wreck dive.
