Coron is considered one of the premier wreck-diving destinations in the world. During these days, we begin exploring the Japanese fleet sunk on September 24, 1944 by the U.S. Navy.

Signature wrecks include:

• Okikawa Maru – A massive 160-meter oil tanker, sunk by a direct hit to the bow

• Olympia Maru – A 120-meter cargo vessel with expansive holds and rich marine life

• East Tangat Gunboat – A shallow submarine hunter ideal for extended exploration, featuring prominent boilers and extensive coral growth

• Akitsusima – A famous seaplane tender, with visible crane gears still intact at the stern

• Irako – A refrigeration ship for the Japanese Imperial Navy, where pots and galley equipment remain visible inside the wreck

These dives offer a remarkable blend of history and thriving reef ecosystems.

The Nanshin Maru, located near Black Island in Busuanga, is believed to be an American oil tanker that sank after WWII, likely due to a typhoon. The wreck lies upright on a sandy bottom at depths ranging from 70–105 feet (21–32 meters) and stretches approximately 165 feet (50 meters) in length.

Following this dive, we continue to Caluit Island, home to a protected marine sanctuary where divers may experience an intimate and unforgettable encounter with dugongs, one of the ocean’s most elusive marine mammals.

The final dive day begins with two deeper morning dives on the Kyokuzan Maru, an auxiliary supply ship of the Japanese Royal Navy sunk by U.S. carrier-based aircraft. The wreck is approximately 140 meters long and is beautifully adorned with coral growth over vehicle parts, tires, and ship structures.

After completing our final dives, Atlantis Adventurer cruises back to Puerto Galera, concluding an extraordinary wreck-diving expedition.

After breakfast, guests will disembark Atlantis Adventurer and transfer to their next destination or onward travel arrangements.
