Paglugaban is a boat-access reef and limestone boulder site in the Miniloc area of El Nido. The dive usually opens over a coral garden before the reef breaks into large rock formations, channels, and swim-throughs that give the route a more exploratory feel than a simple wall or slope. Divers come here for turtles, nudibranchs, octopus, snapper, and other reef life moving through the rockwork and blue-water edge. It suits experienced divers best because the route can pull you from easy coral sections into deeper, more technical-looking terrain where current and overhead features need calm judgment.
