Samal dive fest: exploring Samal Island’s diving sites

The first Samal Dive Festival's fun diving activity proved to be success with around 70 scuba divers, both local and foreign dive enthusiasts from Manila and other parts of Mindanao, participating in the event last May 28 to 29, 2022. The divers, with licenses ranging from open water certification, advanced open water divers, dive masters, and rescue divers, explored Samal Island's emerging dive sites, such as Marissa 3 and Captains One Way, on the first day of the festival. They were also introduced to new dive sites, including Ligid Dako and Aundanao on the second day.
