This gallery is comprised of underwater photos which I made while at the Kasai Village Dive Resort at Moalboal on the island of Cebu, Philippines and is approximately 2.5 hrs from Cebu City. For me, there were several species in this gallery which I had never previously seen, including the beautiful Mandarin Fish and Blue-Ringed Octopus. If one were to do a google search of most beautiful fish in the world, several species in this gallery are in the top 10 list.

Moalboal is a peninsula and as such, it is a town almost entirely surrounded by water. Majority of the people who live in the flat lands engage in fishing as their main mode of livelihood. Those who live in the mountain regions, like Agbalanga and Bala, live through farming.
The common mode of transportation is by motorcycles with side cars, known locally as pedicabs or, depending on the distance, tricycles with side cars, called tri-sikad. However, due to the burgeoning economy of the whole province, tiny jeepneys or multicabs can now be seen in many of the rural areas, transporting people from Moalboal to many of its nearby towns.
