    The Tagbac Wreck in Anilao offers a solid wreck dive without demanding advanced skills. It’s not a huge vessel, more like a fishing boat or small freighter, but it’s settled nicely on its side, creating plenty of nooks and crannies to explore. We’ve seen schooling fusiliers here, darting through the superstructure, and the resident lionfish are almost guaranteed. This site is a great pick for divers looking to add a gentle wreck to their logbook, perhaps after getting comfortable with Anilao’s more exposed reef dives. Just keep an eye on your bottom time; the depth allows for decent exploration, but it’s easy to get absorbed.
