Would you recommend Gato in Malapascua as a dive site?

Posted by admin On September - 11 - 2008

Have you been there? Planning to go, because this seems to be popular now. How is diving there?

Some divers have rated Malapascua's dive spots as some of the world's best diving sites.
Gato Island is one of our most famous dive sites. Gato is a marine reserve and sea snake sanctuary. It has at least five dive sites with a huge diversity of marine life. We are constantly seeing new creatures. At all sites you can see such things as banded sea snakes, cuttlefish (often while mating), seahorses, nudibranchs, frogfish, moray eels, scorpion fish, squid and big-mouthed mackerel. There are many whitetip sharks in residence at Gato, as well as bamboo and cat sharks. The coral is in good condition and the rocky island has many interesting underwater rock formations, overhangs, and swim-throughs.
