    Copton Point, just off Bohol, is a sloping reef that can be a good drift dive when the current picks up. We’ve seen schooling fusiliers here, along with the usual reef fish like parrotfish and triggerfish. It’s a solid option for an easy afternoon dive, particularly if you're looking for something straightforward after a more demanding morning. Good for those who enjoy a relaxed pace.
