Beginner wall-and-reef dive with healthy coral and strong macro life.
Small La Laguna is a beginner-friendly wall-and-reef dive on the Puerto Galera shoreline. The route starts on a shallow wall, drops into a healthy coral slope, then opens onto coral-covered hills and a sandy channel that hold an unusually dense mix of reef fish and small critters. It is a relaxed pick when you want easy terrain with enough structure for repeat dives.
