About this site
Sinandigan Wall lies beyond the Canyons at Puerto Galera, about ten minutes by speedboat across Sabang Bay and around the Sinandigan headland. The site sits sheltered in the eastward lee of the headland, southwest of Cape Escarceo. Depth ranges from 5 to 30 m, with visibility of 10 to 30 m.
The current can be stronger on this side depending on whether the tide is flooding or ebbing, so the tide needs choosing with care. The dive suits beginners and up, depending on the tide.
The wall is covered in sea fans, sponges and gorgonians, with brain, staghorn, mushroom and lettuce corals. A steep vertical drop is known as Nudibranch City for the sheer numbers of nudibranchs, and there are plenty of reef fish and some pelagics.
