Dive-site story
Bubbles Point sits along the Calumpan Peninsula near Mainit, distinguished by underwater geothermal activity where streams of volcanic gas bubbles constantly seep through the sandy substrate. Divers can place their hands over the warm vents to feel heated water rising from beneath the seabed. Beyond the thermal features, the slope transitions into coral patches and rubble fields loaded with macro life.
