Luxury Diving Holidays in Coron (Palawan)

Overview

Home to a nearly a dozen World War II Japanese shipwrecks, Coron offers the best wreck diving in South East Asia, making diving holidays in Coron something of a pilgrimage for keen wreck divers. Visibility tends to be low at around 5-15m, which adds to the eerie effect of diving these well-preserved wrecks. Add to this the astonishingly beautiful scenery, and you can see why divers travel from all over the world to reach the best dive sites in Coron. Many of the wrecks rest at a shallow depth, making this suitable even for novice wreck divers, whilst afficionados will be able to penetrate the vast vessels, with the largest measuring 200m from end to end. Whilst wrecks are the main draw for this region, there is also a healthy smattering of marine life littering the hulls of these metal graveyards, with nature slowly taking over to create a beautiful fusion of reef and wreck.
