Diver's Heaven
Diver's Heaven is situated on the northeast side of Balicasag Island, featuring a steep slope with a shallow top at 10 meters and offering panoramic views of Panglao Island to the north. Underwater, it resembles an aquarium, bustling with Gold band Fusilier, Big-mouth Mackerel, Midnight Snapper, Red tooth Triggerfish, and Turtles. Along the reef edge, between 10 and 15 meters, divers can admire splendid corals like the Brown Daisy coral and Big Bucket sponges. The recommended dive direction advises starting with the steep slope on the left shoulder, heading towards the cathedral in a northwest direction. Towards the end of the dive, the slope becomes steeper in the north. Alternatively, divers can explore the slope with the right shoulder on their right, leading towards the Black Forest in the south direction, depending on the prevailing current.
