Rico’s Wall

★★★★★ (88)

Rico’s Wall, Balicasag is a spectacular wall dive featuring a steep coral-covered drop-off starting from a shallow reef and descending into deep blue water. The wall is rich in hard and soft corals, sea fans, and sponges.

Home to schooling jacks, barracudas, turtles, reef fish, and occasional pelagics. Moderate to strong currents make it an exciting drift dive, best suited for experienced divers.
