About this site
Thalatta House Reef sits just offshore in the Visayas region near Dauin, Negros Oriental, an area known for muck and reef diving off resort house reefs. It reaches a maximum depth of around 15 metres over a sandy bottom and is considered a beginner-friendly dive, consistent with its role as a shore-accessible house reef. Nudibranchs are a regular find here, and divers have also reported frogfish, hairy and ornate ghost pipefish, pipefish, harlequin shrimp, octopus, lionfish, pufferfish, and scorpionfish across the sand.
