Pier diveMuck divingMandarin fish

Scuba

The town pier at Padre Burgos is a fantastic muck and night diving site. The pier pilings and surrounding rubble are a haven for macro life, and it's a very reliable spot to see mandarin fish performing their mating dance at dusk.

Features

A classic pier muck dive. The site is a hotspot for macro photography, especially at night. It is one of the best places in the region to see mandarin fish, as well as frogfish, ghost pipefish, and numerous crustaceans.
