Mapating Rock is a shallow reef in the mid ocean just like Bahura but than larger with ever changing mild currents. The boatman should be familiar with the sight; especially for nitrox diving or else you'll end up searching the exact site. Lots of reef fish, chevron barracudas in small groups and rainbow runner near the drop off. The shallow area has scattered big rock formations with dense population of soft corals. At 40m, at the end of the drop off line, is a big cave for cave diving and nitro diving. Since it is an open ocean beware of the strong waves during rainy season or habagat- west winds.
