The famous Sardine Run at our house reef is in the bucket list of many underwater enthusiasts. The sheer number of sardines swimming along these waters is astounding which makes it a must-see nature show.
Neptune Diving Resort Moalboal
PADI 5 Star Dive CenterThis dive site forms the Northern part of the Sardine Storm, the large amounts of plankton which feed the Sardine Storm are still in abundance on this section of the reef in Moalboal. As corals like clear water free from debris, there aren’t as many hard or soft corals at this dive site. As a result this dive site is suited for both beginner divers and advanced divers, the site does offer rarer creatures such as Flying Grunard, Blue Ring Octopus and Ornate Ghost.
The sardines stick together as a huge group as a form of protection against predators.
It is possible to swim in and out of the bait ball. When you do, the sardines will break up its position but later gather again and unite.
Meet at dive center 2:30 pm for our 3 pm dive with the Sardines
Address: Panagsama Beach, Cebu, Moalboal, No State, 6032, Philippines
