Description:
This dive site is best for Try Scuba diving and beginner dives. A dive seeing through a part of Philippines history. A Japanese WWII war ship was hiding on this site before from American soldiers but unfortunately was identified and bombed. The wreck was now a skeleton since decades pass by and nature decided for its fate. The body was now a home of hard and soft corals and very colorful tunicates.
In this site can be seen sea horses and coral pipefishes in plenty and sometimes you can spot them doing a mating dance, patches of nudibranchs are also available.
