Punta Bilar offers a 3km stretch of protected marine area with good to very good coral reefs condition that is under the protection with the combined initiative of the community and the dive site operator.

The long stretch of coral reefs is home to hundreds to thousands of coral species and other colorful marine organisms ranging from pelagic to sea crawler slugs to quirky sea lilies. Read More: http://www.lovemindanao.com/2013/06/puntabilar.html

There are many places to get certified in the Philippines such as Anilao and Cebu, so why learn to scuba dive with Punta Bilar Dive Center in Surigao City?

Unlike popular and crowded dive centers or resorts, Punta Bilar offers low instructor-student ratio (max 1:8), so students get more one-on-one supervision. Compared to the more popular PADI or NAUI course, the SDI curriculum the dive center offers is also more streamlined and provides more instruction time in the water, rather than lectures. Given its origins in technical diving, SDI courses incorporates the use of modern diving technology, especially the personal dive computer (PDC).   Read More:  https://eazytraveler.net/2013/07/learn-scuba-diving-at-punta-bilar-dive-center-in-surigao-city-sp/

Punta Bilar Dive Site is one of the Places of Interests listed in the Surigao City pamphlet. According to the pamphlet, it is a two-kilometer stretch of pristine marine life. I don’t dive. But I was curious how the beach looks like so this morning, I went on another solo adventure. I went to Punta Bilar without any idea what to see.

Multi-cabs bound for Lipata/Punta Bilar park near the fruit stand of the Surigao Public Market. When I went there, there was no multi-cab parked so I thought I went to the wrong place. I went around the area looking for the multi-cabs but didn’t find any. When I got back to the same spot, across Lumad Shop, an empty multi-cab arrived.   Read More:   https://iwentanyways.com/exploring-surigao-city-punta-bilar/
