LIGPO CAVERN
ACCESS: 5 minutes by boat from Portulano Resort.
CONDITIONS: Generally calm but can have currents
when tide changes.
AVERAGE DEPTH: 60ft (18m)
The cavern is at 30-40ft (9-10m) on the north side
of the protruding rock formation. Experienced divers
may penetrate the cavern with a guide and in single file.
It leads to a soft "dreamlike" coral garden with
pink anemones and teeming soldierfish.
Hidden well inside a crevice in the cavern are lobsters,
usually from 5-12 peeking down from a stadium like dwelling.
We have often seen a giant grouper here, estimated to be
about almost 1.5meters long.
A very good night dive with many crawlers: shrimps,
decorator crabs, octupus and squid. Penetrating
the cavern on a night dive or with strong surge
is not recommended because of urchins.
