Crocodile Island is located South of Boracay Island. It is regarded as one of the best dive sites of Boracay. It is also a popular Snorkelling Spot however there is often quite strong currents so snorkellers should be careful and check the conditions.

Crocodile Island has a teeming reef life in shallow crystal clear water. The maximum diving depth is around 18m deep making it accessible for divers of all level. It is also a great place for Macro Underwater Photography. Here you can spot all the usual reef fishes of the Philippines such as the beautiful Lionfish or maybe even Moray Eels. For those budding photographers out there, Nudibranchs and Sea Snakes can also be found. As a drift dive, you can relax while you check out beautiful coral with Gorgonians and Sea fans on the beautiful walls.

It takes about 15min by boat from White beach to get to Crocodile Island. You can also take a Snorkelling Day tour to Crocodile Island and to other great Snorkelling sites around Boracay Island.

This location is a Reef.

You can dive Crocodile Island all year long. Access: from the Shore. See the map of Crocodile Island on the right for the exact location.
