Paliton Wall

Paliton Wall is regularly named among the finest dives on Siquijor. At its southern end the wall drops almost vertically, and Marine Conservation Philippines warns that the usually clear water makes it easy to sink deeper than planned. Further north the wall softens into a steep sandy slope where mantis shrimps and nudibranchs are found. A small cave sits in the low thirties of metres, and Sea Explorers lets advanced-certified divers enter it. Soft corals, gorgonians, moray eels, lionfish, sea snakes, turtles and bumphead parrotfish are among the reported sightings.
