Diving the World War II Wrecks in Coron, The Philippines

 

It was only until i got to Coron that i realised the significant history of The Philippines and the war between the Japanese and the Americans. In September of 1944 the American’s sunk the Japanese supply fleet in Coron Bay. These were the wrecks i knew i wanted to dive. Arriving by bunga boat from El Nido after 9 hours i was pleasantly welcomed by Ricardo from Seadive Resort who talked us into staying there for the next few days. 

Live-aboard diving at Tubbataha Atoll

One of the worlds hidden secrets, this World Heritage Listed National Park situated a 15 hour boat ride from Puerto Princesa is an atoll haven. With two main atolls stretching over 90,000hectares, the dive sites are unbelievably untouched and pristine.
