Dive-site story
Located along the eastern coast of Bohol near Anda, Dapdap features a lush fringing reef system that transitions from a shallow coral plateau into a steep drop-off. Giant gorgonian fans cling to the deeper sections of the wall, harboring macro subjects, while the upper reef crest supports hard coral formations and soft coral gardens. Water movement is frequently gentle, making navigation straightforward along the continuous reef contours.
Extensive sea fan coverage along the deeper wall sections sheltering pygmy seahorses
Healthy shallow coral gardens populated by diverse macro critters and reef fish
Relaxed wall drift profile suitable for photographers and leisurely diving
