Delsan Wreck
About this Dive Site
Description
Explore the Delsan Wreck, a Vietnamese fishing vessel intentionally sunk in the 1990s within the pristine Tubbataha Reefs. This artificial reef now teems with vibrant corals and sponges, offering encounters with lionfish, scorpionfish, and elusive ghost pipefish. Keep an eye out for graceful manta rays and eagle rays gliding through the clear waters.
