About Rudy'S Rock
Rudy's Rock is a Balicasag wall and slope dive with a coral-covered upper section and a steeper drop-off that draws big schools of jacks, turtles, snappers, and surgeonfish. The site rewards divers who are comfortable with some water movement and a guided boat plan, and it is usually best when you keep the dive tight to the reef.
