Wall Street

North Atoll, Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park, Sulu Sea, Philippines

A serene, classic Tubbataha wall dive that showcases the health of this remote marine sanctuary, usually run as a drift. The breathtaking drop-off gives a real sense of flying along an underwater cliff face. The wall is a tapestry of colourful corals, ledges, and overhangs, many hiding moray eels, lionfish, and crustaceans, with schools of reef fish hugging the structure. Out in the blue, peripheral movement often resolves into reef sharks and barracuda, and sometimes passing manta rays or whale sharks. Depending on the current there is plenty of chance to pause and work the smaller details. Liveaboard access only; Advanced Open Water certification required.
