Dive-site story
Situated at the northwestern tip of Panglao Island, Doljo Point features a dramatic deep wall that falls away into the blue. Massive elephant ear sponges and expansive gorgonian sea fans cling to the sheer drop-off, nourished by oceanic currents sweeping around the headland. While the reef top displays hard coral formations and macro life, the wall attracts pelagic visitors alongside resident reef fish.
Vast gorgonian sea fans and colossal barrel sponges along the vertical wall
Opportunity to spot passing pelagics such as barracudas, jacks, and occasional reef sharks
Excellent drift diving when the tidal current picks up
