About Hump Head Point

Hump Head Point is a soft-sloping Mataking reef with a roomy shallow top, coral-covered contours, and an easy route that rewards a calm, controlled dive. It suits certified divers who want a reef day with good coral texture, regular sightings of larger reef life, and a simple resort-boat plan. The site works best when you keep the pace relaxed and read the slope rather than rushing past it.
