Panagsama beach is sort of run down with very little sand but it has lots of dive centers, some decent accomodations, restaurants and bars - there are good shore dives and snorkeling - turtles and small reef fish are common and there are occasional whale shark sitings - pescador island is a 10 min boat ride away and has good wall drop offs to 160 feet with loads of sponges and soft corals - whitetips sometimes hang out past 100 feet - nice branching corals in the shallows - not enough larger fish due to heavy fishing pressures - visibility is usually 20 - 25 meters - waves can be bigger and visibility can be lower (10-15 meters) in the winter

Nearby kawasan falls is a great swimming area.
