Copton Point

★★★★☆ (236)

Copton Point is one of the few dive sites in Moalboal that has a sandy bottom. At around 20 meters depth you can find a small airplane wreck put in place in an attempt to create an artificial reef. Just beyond the plane wreck, there is a deep wall starting at around 28 meters going all the way down to 80 meters.

This dive site is famous for great macro opportunities with lots of rare critters along the sandy bottom, corals, and a deep wall.
