Ready to get wet?

As mentioned earlier, the waters around Coron and Busuanga are home to some of the best wreck diving sites in the world. 

With limited vacation time, it’s not always possible to explore every corner of your chosen destination, and the same goes for the wrecks in this region. To make the most of your dives, you can browse information about the available wrecks and prioritize the ones that interest you most. 

If you’re not bringing an underwater camera, don’t worry—many dive centers in Coron offer rental options. Capturing that perfect shot underwater could become the photo that lives on your laptop background for years to come.
