About This Dive Spot

Coconut Point is an energetic dive on the northern tip of Apo Island, shaped by a sloping reef that leads toward a rock wall. The defining feature is highly variable current that can hit from multiple directions, creating a turbulent, "washing machine" feel. Between rock cliffs, a sandy channel provides a place to shelter, rest, and work your way through the flow. Divers may have a chance to see mantas and reef sharks here, and the site is best suited to experienced divers.
