Chapel Point - Apo Island

The Chapel dive site is appropriately named after the Apo Island R.C. Church, dedicated to San Vincent de Ferrer, the Fishermen. This dive generally has very light currents, which makes it the ideal dive site to acclimatize yourself to our dive shop and Apo Island.

Chapel point consists of a very gentle slope of sugar white sand and mixed coral heads leading to a very steep slope which looks more like a ski pist than a divesite! This in turn makes way for an impressive wall with many overhangs and small caverns to explore.

Clouds of colorful reef fishes can be seen on the reef crest while spiny lobsters, nudibranchs, fire dartfishes, sasilfin gobies, and a blue ribbon eel can be found on the wall. Several very lucky divers have also seen thresher sharks on this site. Sea snakes and turtles can often be found on the reef flat on top of the wall. The shallow parts have very healthy hard corals.
