Talim Bay, a major source of livelihood for coastal communities in Lian, Batangas and adjacent communities, boasts of diverse coastal habitats. Fishing is the major economic activity within the bay. Almost half of the population of the coastal sitios of Lumaniag, Binubusan and Luyahan are dependent on the resources that the bay provides which is not only limited to food fish but also tropical aquarium fish, shells, crabs and sea cucumber.

     

     Aside from its economic importance, Talim Bay is also a nesting place for marine turtles particularly the endangered species Olive Ridley turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea) and some species of birds which feeds on its mudflat and mangrove areas.
