Diving
Coron Bay is the final resting place of a Japanese Fleet which met its fate one morning in September 1944. The wrecks have been declared a National Heritage Site and are protected by law. The Diving is tremendous. For details of the history and sketches of the wrecks click here to go to DIVE RIGHT'S web page for a full description of the diving available and pictures of the wrecks.
In
addition to the wrecks we also have some of the best reef and coral diving
in Asia.
Our special treat is the freshwater lakes on Coron Island. Hike up a mountain trail in the jungle and THEN go diving. Experience the thermocline and watch for Mr. Baracuda. He likes the company and spends his afternoons with the divers.
The
major Dive Shops in town are ABC DIVE,DIVE
