Anilao is hailed as one of the most diverse destinations in the Philippines for diving and caters to divers of all levels. From rare muck diving critters to reef walls teeming with life, and the Centre of Biodiversity in the Philippines, Verde Island, only a boat ride away.
Anilao began creating waves as a world-class scuba diving destination due to the plethora of nudibranchs and is often dubbed ‘The Nudibranch Capital of the World’
In recent times, the surge in popularity in Blackwater diving and Bonfire diving has brought a lot of attention to Anilao due to the frequently seen rare critters, such as the Blanket Octopus, Juvenile Wonderpus and so much more.
