Things to do in Mabini

Mabini's primary draw is world-class scuba diving at renowned sites including Arthur's Rock, Cathedral Rock, Sombrero Island, and Secret Bay, where you can encounter rare nudibranchs, pygmy seahorses, frogfish, and sea turtles in incredibly clear and biodiverse waters. Non-divers can enjoy snorkeling along the shallower reef areas off Anilao Beach, kayaking between cove resorts, and swimming in the clear waters of the Batangas coast. Take a boat trip to Sombrero Island for a combination of hiking to the lighthouse and snorkeling at the surrounding reef. Visit Maricaban Island for pristine beaches and wall diving at some of the most spectacular sites in the Verde Island Passage. Underwater photography is a thriving pursuit at Mabini's dive sites, which consistently rank among the top macro photography dive destinations in Asia. Fresh seafood dining at beachside restaurants is an essential part of the Mabini experience, with local catch grilled to order overlooking the sea.
