Rock Point West
Located on the southwest corner of Apo Island, Rock Point West is adjacent to it’s sibling Rock Point East. A steep slope leads you to a plateau towards the southern tip where the current gets stronger most of the time.
Resident longnose emperor fish have declared residence in the area. The shallow part of the reef is a psychedelic soft coral garden where you can see hawksbill turtles feeding.
