About Chapel Point
Chapel Point is a boat-dived Apo Island site that starts on a sandy slope and then drops into a dramatic coral wall beneath the hilltop chapel. The shallow top reef is calm and readable, while the wall adds overhangs, cracks, and deeper structure for a more adventurous second half. Plan it as a guided reef dive with strong coral scenery and good buoyancy discipline. The site is more sheltered at the top than the deeper wall, so the dive can suit a wide range of divers as long as they stay within their comfort zone on depth and trim.
