Why dive here
With 143+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, mandarin fish and pufferfish - Manta Point offers some of Bohol's richest diving. Water ranges 28-30°C, warmest May, June, July.
Manta Point in Bohol is precisely what the name suggests, a cleaning station where mantas regularly cruise through. We’ve found it’s best dived early in the morning, before the boat traffic picks up. Currents can be moderate, so you'll want to be comfortable with some drift. It's a great spot for photographers patient enough to wait for the mantas to come in close.
