Manila Channel
★★★★☆
(518)
Similar to the Batangas Channel but with a depth of around 26 meters. Remains of a shipwreck that caught fire and sunk hundreds of years ago can still be seen here. Also an ideal site for night diving
Filled with hard corals that can already be seen at 1m of the water, this is one of the most popular sites in the area.
