Aladin is a wall dive on the northeast corner of Apo Island, Mindoro Occidental. The dive site is accessible by boat from Pandan Island Resort (www.pandan.com).

Apo Island is located far from the resort and dive centers on Negros island. From there it takes about 4 hours by boat. There is an entrance fee, but it is worth it.

Depths between 5 - 20 m. Wave action during the rainy season (July to October) created deep cuts in the coral reef providing refuge to all sorts of coral fish and bottom dwellers.

The western Reef of Pandan Island south features a shallow reef with interesting macro live. Pandan South is only a short boat 10 minutes ride away.

This dive site on the SW-side of Pandan Island consists of a steep slope with occasional big rocks and canyons that offer shelter to a wide array of reef fishes and attract predators such as mackerels and trevallys. There is a variation of different corals and big sea fans up to 2 meters diameter to be found.

Easy but beautiful dive. In a lively garden of mainly hard corals with patches of sand in between all kinds of marine life can be observed at this spot.

Probably the most advanced dive around the island. The whole wall is overgrown with hard and soft corals and the gorgonians reach a considerable size.

Depths 2 – 18m. Ideal for beginners, courses or a warm-up dive. No current ever. Still, a wide variety of coral fish can be seen. Nearby ‘Lion fish den’ consists of a group of corals & rocks.

The area below the coral garden west is home to big sea-fans and several rocks with an abundance of coral-fish. Due to the muddy consistency of the bottom the visibility is foggy and gives this unusual site a mystic appearance.

A sheer drop from about 7 - 35 m makes this an interesting dive site. Although not as many fish are seen as in other parts of the island, the overhanging corals create a very special atmosphere.
