About this site
House Beach lies off Cadlao Island in the El Nido area of northern Palawan, part of the Bacuit archipelago in Luzon province, Philippines. Cadlao is the largest island in the bay, and dive and snorkel spots along its shoreline are typically reached by outrigger boat from El Nido town. The site is a shore dive reaching around 12 metres, rated as a beginner dive. Divers have reported bull sharks, hammerheads, and even tiger sharks here, though sightings of these larger species are not something every diver should expect on a given trip.
