The beautiful turquoise waters surrounding the islands of Moalboal, located in the south of Cebu, are home to a dazzling array of fish and other marine life! Swim with sea turtles, sardines, frogfish, white tip sharks, and many more in waters that are accessible to both beginner divers and veterans. The tours in Moalboal are available year-round.
Sardines also spawn in the cool waters of Moalboal. The sardines would typically gather in front of the Savedra Dive Centre which is very accessible to tourists. They hover just 30 minutes off the coast so divers find it easy to spot them.
