Santoson

Santoson is a local shore dive site commonly visited from nearby towns such as Malay and Nabas. The site sits in shallow coastal waters, with typical conditions of the area. Divers usually encounter a mix of sandy patches, small coral formations, and rocky outcrops at shallow depths. The area supports a range of Western Pacific reef-associated fauna, including small reef fishes, wrasse, damselfish, and occasional crabs and nudibranchs. Access is straightforward from the coast, and the site is popular for introductory dives and practice dives near barangay beaches. Always dive with local guides and respect the protected zones and marine life.
