Diving around Carabao, Romblon near Boracay
You’ve probably never heard of this place and when you look in the travel guides about the Philippines, it is never mentioned but we tell you: this land is true paradise if you are looking for authenticity and nature. Carabao Island is beautiful and wild on land, but it is also stunning underwater. It is surrounded by beautiful coral reef, which make it a very attractive, yet unknown diving destination in Romblon.
Unlike the nearby Boracay that has been dived by hundreds of people everyday since many years, the island of Carabao, part of the Romblon province, is out of the beaten track, far away from mass tourism and barely had any diving operation until now. We can guarantee that you won’t see anyone else during your time underwater and you will have unique souvenirs to share when you get back home.
The dive sites around Carabao are a variety of hard and soft coral gardens, slopes, shallow walls, deep walls and caverns.
Dive Carabao Island in Romblon and discover a new destination of the Philippines near Boracay, yet so different and unique.
