Amazing Critters of Anilao | A Dive Guide's Must-See Critters | Philippines | 4K | 2023

"Amazing Critters of Anilao, A Dive Guide's Must-See Critters, Philippines in 4K, 2023" was filmed in Anilao in May 2023 during our stay at Buceo Anilao Beach & Dive Resort.

Anilao, a renowned diving destination in the Philippines, captivated us with its underwater wonders and warm hospitality. Underwater, Anilao's marine life dazzled us. From vibrant nudibranchs and camouflaged seahorses to elusive rhinopias, the underwater world was a treasure trove of fascinating critters.

Most of the critters, however, are tiny in Anilao, and their camouflage is unbelievable! Without our guide, Jimson, we would have missed most of them. Jimson led us to many must-see critters in Anilao, most of which I showcased in my previous video Wonders of Anilao:
