    Check Point, near Mabul, makes for a relaxed dive often explored for its macro life. We've regularly found frogfish camouflaged on sponges and a good variety of nudibranchs along the rubble slope. It's a forgiving site with mild currents, good for photographers or those looking to slow down and really observe the smaller creatures. Visibility can be a bit variable, but that's part of the fun in muck diving here.
