ROMBLON
Why dive here
With 87+ marine species recorded in the area - including clownfish, lionfish and pufferfish - ROMBLON offers some of Anilao's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 27-31°C, warmest May, June, July.
The Romblon wreck sits in just 5 metres of water, making it a surprisingly accessible dive for such a piece of history. This motor vessel went down in 1974 after a fire, and what's left is a 67-metre hull that’s now a home for all sorts of reef fish. You can swim over and around the main structure, spotting batfish schooling near the mast and emperor fish darting in and out of the rusted metal. It’s a shallower, more relaxed wreck dive, perfect for photographers wanting to capture the light playing on the structure, or for those new to wreck exploration. We usually find it’s a good second dive of the day, a nice contrast to some of Anilao's deeper reef walls.
