Critters Wonderlands – DAUIN

Questo articolo è disponibile anche in: Italiano (Italian)

Here we are for a new chapter of “The critter wonderlands”, where the small creatures crowd the reefs and the sandy bottoms. This time we talk about Dauin, a place on the south oriental coast of Negros Island in the Phillipines Visayas. Dauin offers several dive sites, some of them with coral reefs or coral patches and others in pure muck dive style. The dive sites are often located in marine sanctuaries, where fishing and sailing are not permitted.

Maybe due to the period of my stay, I did not meet so many nudies. Sea slugs apart, a great benthic biodiversity just interrupted with the excursions to Apo island, Sumilon island or at the whale shark show in Oslob.

Many interesting subjects on the sand and among the algae.

Anyway I found the real explosion of life among the polyps of the corals and the tentacles of anemone and crinoid.

At list Dauin is the right place for those like me…… the sick of macro photography!
