Loon

Loon, in Bohol province, is a coastal town on the central Philippines’ visayas belt. While not a famous major dive hub, its location near Panglao and the broader Bohol Sea area provides easy access to reef dives, wall dives, and macro underwater life through nearby dive centers. With a single local dive operator, divers typically use Loon as a gateway point for day trips to surrounding sites or for practical shore access along the coast. The area offers warm tropical waters, clear visibility in good conditions, and a relaxed, small-town diving scene rather than a dense cluster of centers. For freshwater options, the town itself is coastal, so inland freshwater diving isn’t a primary draw in this context.
