Chapel Reef
★★★★★
(2,088)
The Catholic Chapel at Apo Island can be seen from the dive site, hence the name. A stunning dive site that begins as a slope with scattered coral bommies leading to a steeper slope towards a wall overloaded with nook, crannies, cracks, crevices & caverns exposing overhangs graced by soft & hard corals.
Marine vertebrates, invertebrates & marine reptiles populate the area. Look out into the blue, thresher sharks have been recorded passing by.
