About this tour

Sleep, eat and dive your way across northern Palawan on this five-day liveaboard expedition from Coron to El Nido, linking two of the country's premier marine regions in a single voyage. Living aboard the boat means you wake up moored at the dive sites, maximising your time underwater and reaching reefs, walls and wrecks that day boats simply cannot.

The Coron leg centres on the world-famous WWII wrecks: a fleet of Japanese ships sunk in Coron Bay in September 1944, now coral-encrusted swim-throughs alive with fish, ranging from shallow wrecks for all levels to deeper ships for experienced divers. As the boat journeys south through the remote, crystal-clear waters around Linapacan, you dive untouched reefs, drop-offs and coral gardens far from any crowds, before finishing among the dramatic limestone seascapes of El Nido and the Bacuit Archipelago.

With multiple dives a day, including the chance at night dives, plus full crew, meals and surface intervals spent cruising stunning scenery, this is an immersive trip for certified divers. Wreck dives at depth suit Advanced certification and good experience, while the reef sites offer something for a range of levels. It is one of the most rewarding ways to dive Palawan end to end.
