Dive-site story
Positioned off the western coast of Puerto Galera, Wreck Point features a gently sloping reef interspersed with coral patches, rocky outcroppings, and remnants of broken wreckage. The site is sheltered from the strongest currents that rip through the main Verde Island Passage channel, making it a reliable spot for searching out cryptic macro critters and leisurely photography. Divers descend along mixed substrate where soft corals, gorgonians, and barrel sponges cover the seafloor before tapering onto an open sand bed.
