Dive-site story
Magic Point sits along the coastal fringes of Anda on the southeastern tip of Bohol. The reef features a shallow plateau that transitions into a steep coral-covered drop-off, making it ideal for both day excursions and dusk macro dives. Sandy patches and coral heads near the drop-off harbor cryptically colored critters alongside passing green sea turtles.
Reliable dusk encounters with mating mandarinfish in shallow staghorn patches
Steep wall sections adorned with gorgonians, sea fans, and colorful sponge formations
Macro hunting along coral rubbles for nudibranchs, frogfish, and tiny cephalopods
