Dive-site story
Resting on an incline off the eastern coast of Tangat Island in Coron Bay, this sunken Japanese auxiliary sub-chaser lies on a sloping reef. Heavily encrusted with hard and soft corals, the wreckage provides shelter to small macro life and reef dwellers, while remaining accessible even on extended no-decompression profiles.
Well-preserved bow section adorned with sponges and soft corals
Propeller and rudder intact against the sandy slope
Calm sheltered bay conditions suitable for relaxed photography
Location
