The Talei Maru wreck at Apo Reef offers a straightforward dive on a Japanese fishing vessel. It's not a massive wreck, but it’s well-colonized with sponges and hydroids, attracting the usual reef fish. We often see lionfish tucked into crevices. This site is a good option for divers looking to add a gentle wreck dive to their Apo Reef itinerary, without battling strong currents.
