Cabuan

Also known as: Giant Clam · Cabuan Point · Cabu-an Point

Cabuan is best known as a conservation zone for giant clams, some of them more than a metre across. They sit on a gentle slope of soft corals, reef rubble and sandy patches. Nudibranchs, frogfish, scorpionfish, moray eels, sea snakes and schools of snappers share the reef. DumagueteInfo describes branching hard corals, gorgonians, anthias and Napoleon wrasse at Cabuan Point. Blue Season reaches it by car rather than by boat.
