Balicasag's namesake wall — barracuda tornadoes, jack schools, and stands of black coral.
Black Forest is Balicasag's best-known wall, running from 8m down to 40m and named for the dense stands of black coral that grow along it. Most of the action is around 25m, where the wall is at its most dramatic.
This is where Balicasag's barracuda tornadoes and jackfish schools are most often seen, alongside turtles and grouper working the reef. Given the depth range, it's best suited to Open Water certified divers and above.
