About Talisay
Talisay is a shore-access wall dive on Cabilao in Bohol with a shallow coral top, a long drop-off, and an easy coastline entry. The reef carries hard corals, sea fans, gorgonians, and small cave pockets that make it a strong macro dive, while the current can turn it into a drift-style profile on better days. It suits divers who are comfortable with wall terrain, blue-water passes, and changing water movement.

Scuba Diving
A drift dive along a long wall with a shallow start and a drop to around 30 m.
Freediving
Only the shallow top is suitable, and only on calm days; the wall itself is a scuba-first dive.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is limited to the shallow top near the entry and is best left for calm water; the wall and caves are the main draw.
