Entalula Wall

Entalula Wall lies in the Bacuit archipelago off El Nido in northern Palawan, Philippines, an area of limestone islands rising from the Sulu Sea. As a wall dive it follows a drop-off along the island's edge, reaching a maximum depth of 18 metres, and is rated an intermediate dive with light current and good visibility. El Nido's karst topography shapes much of the diving in this part of Palawan, with sites accessed by short boat trips from town. Divers have reported clownfish, damselfish, fusiliers, parrotfish, and nudibranchs along the wall, along with occasional sightings of eagle rays, octopus, pipefish, and squid.
