A short distance past Batangas Channel lays a dozen or so Giant Clams, seeded by the University of Manila over a decade ago. Now flourishing and multiplying in number these clams are very interesting to examine with intricate details and colours in their mantle. Hard corals have taken root on their shells too and the clams are interesting to watch as their primitive eyes detect light and basic movement leading them to snap shut their gaping maw and push a strong jet of water out through their orifices!
Adjacent to these, some of the most diverse and healthy hard coral species can be found standing perpendicular to the current. Seahorses , Moray Eels, Ghost Pipefish, Mantis Crabs and Sting Rays abound in this undisturbed treasure trove of rare marine creatures.
