The Point Bar
Located above the asia divers dive shop, has a tropical, open-air design that offers 200 degree views of the sabang and big la laguna bay. it opens in the early afternoon but does not see much action until after the afternoon divers are done. it also gets quiet fairly early as the diver patrons retire to dinner and then return later for more fun. there are drink specials during happy hour which runs from 5:30 to 6:30. food can be ordered from the el galleon resort restaurant menu. famous for their range of devastating shots, the tradition for anyone who's completed a course with asia divers or tech asia is to wait until their instructors and course members are in the bar and then ring the large ships bell hung at the end of the bar. ringing the bell means buying a round of shots for the whole bar, although this isn't as expensive as it sounds. you can also win t shirts by drinking a range of different shots. the point bar also has a fantastic bbq night once a week which is well worth attending.
