Matatindoc Point - Bohol

Matatindoc Point, off Bohol, gives you a solid wall dive that dips down to around 25 metres. We often see schooling jacks out in the blue here, and the wall itself is home to plenty of nudibranchs and smaller reef fish tucked into the crevices. It’s a good spot for a second dive of the day, straightforward and generally without strong currents, making it quite relaxed for most experience levels.
