Misamis Oriental

Misamis Oriental is a healthy home to thriving biodiversity. A dive session in Misamis can introduce you to a multitude of critters, fish, turtles, crustaceans, and even sharks or rays.

Here, beginner divers and veteran sea explorers alike can also experience dives with different difficulty levels- from shallow coral reefs to steep slopes.

It also boasts of Gingoog Pier, which is host to plenty of macro critters living in sponge and coral-encrusted pillars. But perhaps most unique in Misamis Oriental is its underwater spring vents that constantly supply nutrients to the reefs, which results in a lovely aggregation of very colorful soft corals.
