The Coral Cove house reef is excellent for shore dives and night dives with plenty of juvenile fish, it also provides superb snorkelling for non divers. We are situated about twenty minutes walk away from Sabang, or five minutes by jeepney, and we offer a tranquil environment with no roosters or traffic noise. If you want to take a day off from diving or if you are travelling with non-divers, our two distinctive jeepneys can take guests to the local golf course, to waterfalls or other beaches or we can arrange boat trips to a choice of locations.
