Why Crocodile Island is special ?
Crocodile Island is only a stones throw away from Boracay Island itself and can be reached within fifteen minutes from White Beach. It a site which is available to divers of all levels of experience as the top of the wall, which is swarmed with marine life, is only at 5 meters. Usually, the dive is started by going along the wall to a maximum depth of 18 - 20 meters, then returning to the boat in the shallow water on top of the wall. A huge variety of life can be found at Crocodile Island including schools of reef fish, Nudibranch, Lion Fish, Scorpion Fish, Moray Eels, Cuttle Fish, Sea snakes, Gorgonian Fan Corals and much more.

Reviews
Went for snorkeling at crocodile island but we were very dissapointed that the water is shallow and the corals were not as amazing.
Not a far boat ride from Bulabog but there are closer beaches to depart from. Beautiful clear water with many, many fish that we fed with bread. Look out for those that might bite your finger during the frenzy! Coral is not exciting or colourful but I find it interesting none the less and seeing cute fish in their anemone
To my final dive here to certify as open water diver. Completely amazing, as most divespots in boracay
