The Canyons are an advanced dive that requires a good dive guide to allow for the currents to sweep you into position. Racing over several small drop-offs below the Hole in the Wall covered in soft corals and sponges, you can duck into and one of the Canyons for a respite from the current.
There is much to find on the bottom but primarily it is the large schools of snapper, emperors, sweetlips, barracudas, jacks, trevally and occasional sharks that make this an exciting dive. The dive ends at a 1.5m/5ft anchor embedded in the coral, where the group can gather before being swept off to the safety stop in the current. This is an excellent nitrox dive and one of the most popular dive site in Puerto Galera - you'll want to go back time after time.
