Dive-site story
Located off the northern tip of Boracay, Yapak is a legendary deep wall dive swept by fierce oceanic currents. Divers drop straight into open blue water and descend rapidly to reach the crest of a vertical coral wall that plunges into the abyss. Massive gorgonian sea fans cling to the vertical rock face while schools of pelagic fish patrol off the drop-off.
