Why dive here
With 554+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blacktip reef sharks, blue-spotted stingrays, manta rays and mobula rays (devil rays) - SWEET NAME offers some of Visayas's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 28-31°C, warmest May, June, October.
The Sweet Name wreck, lying at 20 meters, is a nice, straightforward dive for wreck enthusiasts. This roll-on/roll-off vessel went down in 1983 after a collision, and she’s settled upright, making for an easy orientation. We’ve found her superstructure still largely intact, allowing for some simple penetration if you’re appropriately qualified and comfortable. Keep an eye out for batfish hanging around the upper decks and the occasional moray eel peeking from a porthole. It’s not an advanced dive, making it a good spot for newer wreck divers to get a feel for exploring a sunken ship.
