Analyzing Anilao
Text and photos by Mary Anne Pedoto

Anilao has issues. Notwithstanding the terrorist tales of the South Islands, kidnappings, and the incorrectly perceived dangers in general of the Phillipines, the area was perplexing. Identity crisis, split personality, or just a mere trickster, did it have a superiority or inferiority complex?

In this article, Coral Realm contributor Mary Anne Pedoto will take us along with her to Anilao! This includes a concise description of the operation there as well as a list of some of the critters you are likely to encounter!
