MS Jojo - Bohol

The MS Jojo, resting off Bohol, offers a solid wreck dive without being overly challenging. It’s an older, mostly intact cargo vessel, and you can swim through the main cargo holds where schools of snapper and batfish often congregate, swirling in the filtered light. Look closely at the hull for stonefish and scorpionfish, perfectly camouflaged against the rust. The deck superstructure is collapsing in places, creating interesting swim-throughs for divers comfortable with overhead environments, making it a good choice for those wanting to explore a proper wreck without deep penetration.
