Bas Coral (Olango)
10° 15.1′ N · 124° 1.2′ E
A wall-and-reef site off Olango's south-west corner, facing Mactan across the Hilutungan Channel - a wall and reef to 35 m swept by the channel current.
Practical
Waypoint from Wannadive (10°15.116'N 124°01.233'E; flagged approximate by the site). Wannadive: average depth 20 m, maximum 35 m, medium current (1-2 kn) that can be strong at times - take care; visibility 10-30 m; advanced level suggested; about 12 minutes by boat from Mactan's Maribago coast. The San Vicente Marine Protected Area and the Olango Island Wildlife Sanctuary lie inshore on this corner - no fishing or anchoring on the reef.
