About this dive site
Bohol's main dive base for Balicasag, Cabilao and dolphin trips.
Alona Beach in Panglao is the launch point most Bohol itineraries use for Balicasag walls, local house reefs and day boats to Cabilao or Pamilacan. Expect busy resorts but easy logistics and warm water most of the year.
Alona is a busy hub — book Balicasag and Cabilao early in high season; house-reef dives suit checkouts before wall days.
