About this site
Coral Garden sits off the fringing shoreline of Talikud Island, near Samal Island in the Davao Gulf on the eastern coast of Mindanao, and is reached by boat from Davao City. The site is one of several named dive and snorkel spots along this stretch of coast, where shallow shelves drop gradually into the gulf. It reaches a maximum depth of around 15 metres and is rated a beginner dive, making it an easy, accessible stop along Talikud's coastline.
