Also known as Angara Cove, Bituin Cove is a great choice if you’re looking for a spot that’s peaceful and private. The cove’s calm sea bed makes it an exciting place for cliff diving. In order to do so, you must first climb an underground lagoon to get to the cliff on top. Other water activities such as snorkeling, fish feeding, and island hopping can also be done at the place if you don’t feel like going in for a second jump. Note that there are no resorts in the cove, so it advisable to bring your own tent and gear.



2. Tali Beach

Location: Nasugbu, Batangas
Rates: Varies per accommodation

If you’re a first timer, there’s no need to worry because Tali Beach caters to divers and non-divers alike.

There’s more to Fortune Island than meets the eye. Not only does it give off strong Greek ambience with its pillar ruins, but it also boasts powdery white sand, gentle ocean waves, and a perfectly good diving spot.

After cliff diving, you can choose to go deeper and explore the wonders of the ocean through the Blue Holes, a bunch of sinkholes that lead into an open-topped cavern; The Wreck, a rear part of a Dutch freighter; and the Fortune NW, a valley filled with diverse coral formations.

Yet another untouched beauty located in the heart of Nasugbu, Batangas is Papaya Island Cove. The cove is perfect for those who are in need of a break from places with large crowds.

Both spots are abundant in marine life, making cliff diving as interesting as it is exciting.

The vast ocean view at Club Punta Fuego may seem lonely and empty, but it is actually the exact opposite. Thriving with marine biodiversity and known for being a diver’s paradise, Punta Fuego is long considered as one of the best diving spots in the country. Fun fact: back in 2014, the Punta Fuego and Rider Cliff Diving Invitational was held here. This helped attract more visitors, making it a favorite cliff diving of both tourists and locals.
