Drift Diving
Boracay Drift Diving (experienced)
Boracay Diving in the Channel (Tabon Strait, No.3) has strong tidal currents of considerable strength. There's also a shark cave where, if you are lucky, you will see White tip Reef Sharks. Strong tidal currents flow through the Tabon Strait with great force, taking divers along a sandy bottom with patches of coral, canyons and crevices where smaller fish take refuge and bigger fish wait for the current to bring them food. There is an excellent drift-dive at 60 ft but it is important to have good buoyancy control. Boracay Drift Diving on the south side, a deeper drift-dive follows a ridge at 115 ft where there are some caves that often contain resting Whitetip Reef Sharks, Other cracks and crevices shield groupers, batfish and sweetlips and there are stingrays and garden eels on the sand.
