Moalboal, a small but vibrant coastal resort southwest of Cebu City, features a rocky shoreline adorned with bars and restaurants offering scenic views of the Tañon Strait and the distant hills of Negros Chocolate. It's a haven for scuba divers, underwater photographers, and freedivers due to its unique access to coral reefs right off the shore. The star attraction is the massive sardine shoals gathering at Panagsama Beach, the hub of dive shops, resorts, and bars. Moalboal is an underwater paradise with its coral reef extending just 20-30 metres from the shore, plunging to depths of 30-70 metres, offering exceptional wall diving with vibrant hard and soft corals, gorgonian sea fans, and barrel sponges. For a more tranquil beach experience, visitors can head 7 kilometres north to White Beach, which features powdery sands and a break from the tourist crowds.
