Diving Umbrella Rock in Moalboal, Philippines

In September of 2026, I dove Umbrella Rock with Dive In Amigos, by boat out of Moalboal, Philippines.

I dove it on the same day as White Beach, and the two sites sit close together off the same stretch of coast.

At 92 ft (28 m) this was the deepest dive I did in Moalboal.

The Formations

The rocks are very thin, with a dome structure on top which is where the umbrella name comes from.

The Dive

I logged 92 ft (28 m) at the deepest, with an average of 45 ft (13.7 m) across 54 minutes.

Like White Beach, this is a wall that starts close to shore and drops into the Tañon Strait, which runs to around 1,640 ft (500 m) between Cebu and Negros.

It's close enough to the beach that you'd think about shore diving it, but everyone dives it off a boat.

Visibility was 90 ft (27 m).

What Marine Life I Saw

The Dive & Conditions

Visibility was 90 ft (27 m) on my dive and the water was 84.2°F (29°C).

Dive In Amigos run this as a boat trip out of Moalboal.
