About this site
Mactan Island sits just east of Cebu City in the Visayas region of the Philippines, separated from the mainland by the Mactan Channel. The island's coastline is lined with numerous small dive sites accessed by banca boats from resorts along its shores, many of them named for local landmarks or resort operators.
