Habagat Wreck

Description

Watch your NDL if you plan to dive into the wreck that was sunk by Seaquest Dive Center in the year 2000. You can bring a dive light to look in the wreck and the small caves in the wall.

Marine Life

Swimming above the wreck are Tall fin Batfish, under the wreck Big Lionfish, Giant Anglerfish, and many different kinds of cardinal fishes in the wreck. At the “S” shaped wall look for Anglerfish, and at the end of the dive on the slope, look among the feather stars for the Harlequin Ghost Pipefish.
