Information about Skeleton Wreck

Skeleton Wreck  

Skeleton Wreck, which is located on Coron Town's northwest corner, is a unique dive site in Palawan Island. It is extremely suitable for snorkeling since it rests at a depth of 5 to 22 meters at the stern. From just off the shore, you can see the entire wreck.

The steel keel, ribs, and stringers of this 25-meter-long Japanese supply vessel are all that remains of the Imperial ships sunk by US forces during World War II.

The wreck's coral-encrusted remains provide a habitat for diverse marine life, making it a popular spot for diving in Coron town.

How to get there

You can reach Skeleton Wreck by boat. This attraction is included in some Coron island hopping tours and scuba diving packages. For non-divers, you can join a snorkeling tour to Coron town's reefs and wrecks to see more underwater attractions like the Skeleton Wreck. 

Best time to visit

You can visit this attraction during the summer months to avoid heavy rainfall.
