Jigdup Reef
Why dive here
With 143+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, mandarin fish and pufferfish - Jigdup Reef offers some of Bohol's richest reef diving. Water ranges 28-30°C, warmest May, June, July.
Jigdup Reef, off Bohol, is one of those sites we keep coming back to when we want a relaxed dive with plenty to discover if you take your time. You won't find dramatic drop-offs here, but rather a gentle slope full of smaller, intricate creatures. We often spot Lettered Mitre shells tucked into the sand and sometimes a Lined-lip Cowrie slowly making its way across a coral head. It’s a good spot for macro enthusiasts, or anyone looking for a chill afternoon dive after something more intense. Visibility is usually decent, around 15-20 meters, and currents are mild most of the time.
