Why dive here
With 496+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blacktip reef sharks, blue-spotted stingrays, bull sharks and octopuses - West Point offers some of Dumaguete's richest diving. Water ranges 28-30°C, warmest June, July, October.
West Point, just off Dumaguete, makes for a relaxed afternoon dive. We typically find a gentle slope here, covered in soft corals and sponges. Look closely for frogfish camouflaged on the reef, and we’ve often spotted turtles resting among the bommies. It’s a good spot for newer divers or those who prefer a slow pace, with currents usually quite mild.
