Busuanga Diving Vacation
Palawan
Diving
Scenic Busuanga Philippine is the largest in the Calamian group of Palawan islands.
What make Busuanga diving special are the game reserve and wildlife sanctuary, and the wrecks around Coron Bay.
Palawan is dubbed as the country's last nature frontier.
Taking an average of day long trips from the town proper, you can savour the sight of twelve wrecks identified in diveable depths.
Although Busuanga diving can be done anytime, visibility and current are
best from October to May.
Busuanga's bonus attractions are Coron's limestone cliffs and tiny isolated beach coves along with freshwater lakes, one of which features hot springs and can be accessed by a short climb over limestone pinnacles from the sea.
A hidden cavern with an underwater entrance to the sea can be explored. Pearl farms are added attractions.
