Coron Bay Wrecks (WWII Japanese shipwrecks, e.g., Okikawa Maru)
Bedste tid at besøge
Early morning offers calm seas and the best underwater visibility, dry season November to May gives consistently clearer water.
Budgettips
No single national park ticket covers all wrecks, expect operator fees: snorkeling trips cost about PHP 800-1,500, guided scuba dives about PHP 2,500-4,500 per half day; bring cash for small local environmental fees and opt for multi-dive or group bookings to save.

Om
Hurtige fakta: En dykker kan drive gennem koralbeklædte skrog, hvor solstråler forvandler lasteluger til spøgelsesagtige, fotogene kamre, mens nysgerrige fisk skynder sig gennem knuste koøjer. Mere end et dusin stålvrag ligger i overraskende lavt vand, så snorklere og fotografer kan få intime billeder af propeller, kedler og blonderustmønstre.
Højdepunkter: Under glat vand gaber et 120 meter langt stålhul åbent ved cirka 30 meters dybde, ladelugerne er stadig fyldt med rustne Mitsubishi-lastbilrammer og lakerede sakeflasker, mens sollys gennem kanonstillingerne får svævende slam til at gløde som langsomt faldende sne. Lokale dykkere har en spøjs tradition med at lægge en lille papirgøgle i officerens kahyt som et held-tilbud, og ved daggry patruljerer stimer af trevally og en kæmpe pukkelparrotfisk vraget som støjende pendler.
Insidertips
- Wear a thin wetsuit or 3mm neoprene for warmth and protection during dives and long snorkels.
- Use reef-safe sunscreen and avoid touching coral or entering ship interiors without a certified guide.
- Ask your operator for morning slots to avoid the busiest boats and get the best light for photos.
- Bring an underwater camera with a wide-angle lens and a strobe for interior wreck shots, low-light conditions require extra lighting.
