Diveity's dive site atlas spans 582 dive sites across 17 countries, from shallow shore entries to deep wrecks and drift dives. Guides bring together available information on dive sites, marine life and nearby operators. Some guides are partial; missing or disputed details are labelled.
Sites are organized by country, then region, then area, so you can zoom from a whole coastline down to a single bay. Start broad if you're still picking a destination, or jump straight to a named site if you already know where you're headed — every level of the hierarchy links up and down, and every page counts what it aggregates below it.
Browse by country, region or area to compare dive sites. Read each guide's sources and uncertainty labels, and confirm access and current conditions with a local operator.
582 dive sites are listed across 17 countries. Some guides are partial, with missing or disputed details labelled.
Best conditions shift by region and season, so there's no single answer worldwide. Check a specific dive site's page for depth, visibility, and current details before you plan a trip.
From shallow reefs to deep wrecks, drift dives to wall dives — Diveity's dive site atlas spans every style of diving, searchable by country, region, and area.
Most sites call for at least an Open Water certification, and some advanced sites require further training. Local dive shops and resorts can help you get certified if you are not yet.

Philippines > Visayas > Boracay
Small Laurel is a named reef dive in the Boracay area of Aklan. WaterColors and DiveGurus distinguish Small Laurel from Big Laurel. Combined descriptions of the Laurel sites do not establish the depth or entry arrangements for this exact point. Location uncertainty: this guide follows the SSI/Scubago point named Small Laurel southeast of Boracay. DiveGurus describes the Laurel sites as…
Philippines > Visayas > Pamilacan Island
Dakit Dakit is a named dive site at Pamilacan Island, Bohol, listed by Bohol Eco Divers and Alona Bohol Divers Club. Bohol Eco Divers and Alona Bohol Divers Club name this Pamilacan site. A same-name PADI listing is about 205 km away in another region and is not evidence for this location. Location unresolved: the operator’s explicitly approximate pin falls…
Philippines > Visayas > Pamilacan Island
Spanish Tower: a partial Pamilacan guide Spanish Tower is a named dive site at Pamilacan Island, Bohol, associated by local operators with the old watchtower ashore. This record remains unlocated: the previously supplied approximate operator pin failed the coastline check, so there is no map marker or navigation point. A visible landmark and a named dive route do not establish…
Philippines > Visayas > Boracay
Diniwid is a named dive site in the Boracay area of Aklan, listed by Eclipse Dive Center and Wicked Squid Divers. This partial guide uses the named Zentacle map point. Location uncertainty: this guide follows the approximate Zentacle point named Diniwid. Another dive-site directory places Diniwid about 574 m away. The reason for this disagreement is unresolved. Neither point has…
Philippines > Visayas > Boracay
Crocodile Island is a named reef and wall dive off southeastern Boracay. Eclipse Dive Center and New Wave Divers associate the name with the island’s crocodile-head shape. This guide follows their Boracay site descriptions, but Diveity’s retained source position remains unverified. There is no map marker or navigation point for this partial record, and the published island orientation does not…
Philippines > Visayas > Malapascua
Tapilon Wreck: a named wreck with unresolved identity Kokay's Malapascua Diving and Thresher Shark Divers list Tapilon Wreck among dives offered from Malapascua. Both describe a broken vessel named for the nearby mainland town. Their accounts give useful context for the dive, but the ship's identity remains unresolved. Keep the name and history separate Kokay's heading uses Oakita Maru alongside…
Philippines > Visayas > Malapascua
Chocolate Island: reef scenery and small marine life Chocolate Island is a named dive destination between Malapascua and the northern coast of Cebu. Sea Explorers and Malapascua Exotic describe a reef descending towards sand, while Evolution describes soft corals, small rocky walls and coral-covered boulders. These accounts give the dive a clearer character than a name alone: it is a…
Philippines > Visayas > Malapascua
Kimud Shoal, Malapascua Kimud Shoal is an offshore dive site visited from Malapascua and a focus of current thresher-shark trips. It is a different shoal from Monad, not another name for the same place. Sea Explorers identifies Kimud as its main thresher site, while MBI Dive Center's September 2026 account describes regular morning visits there. Those operator reports help distinguish…
Philippines > Visayas > Mactan
Dive Funatics lists Kontiki Reef as a dive site in Mactan. This guide follows the operator’s named Kontiki Reef. It does not use the operator’s business address or footer map as a dive-site location. Exact site boundaries and entry arrangements remain unresolved. Location unresolved: The retained source coordinate remains unverified. This partial guide has no map marker or navigation point.…
Philippines > Visayas > Dauin
Ceres is a named dive site in the Dauin diving area. The Atlantis operator map lists Ceres separately from Shallow Cars and Cars, and REEF maintains the Ceres survey-location name under code 72050109. The exact boundaries of Ceres relative to Cars Wreck have not been established here. A separate map label and survey name support this partial guide, but do…
Philippines > Visayas > Dauin
Talisay is named by La Tortue Diving and Bongo Bongo Divers among their Dauin dive sites. La Tortue describes a sandy muck-diving setting. REEF lists the survey-location name Talisay / Talia’s (Dauin) under code 72050120. This guide concerns the Dauin site, not similarly named sites elsewhere in the Philippines. La Tortue also lists Talisay 2 — Sea Dream separately; its…

These operator references support a partial guide to the pier-associated dive site. This guide refers to the pier-associated diving name rather than the whole Maayong Tubig locality. Its boundaries and relationship to nearby resort house…
