6. Day 6: Aquatic Views of Sunken Japanese Warships And Arguably the Most Beautiful Coral on Earth

   • Siete Pecados is where we see arguably the most amazing coral on earth.
   • Lake Kayangan and the Twin Lagoon are also amazing.
   • As its name suggests, the Twin Lagoon is two separate bodies of water divided by limestone karsts.
   • At high tide, the second lagoon appears inaccessible.
   • There is a small hole in the karsts that we can swim under in order to get to the other side.
   • For those who prefer to climb over the rock formation, a wooden ladder rests above the hole.
   • Skeleton Wreck is the most popular of the places to be visited today.
   • The aquatic views from the sunken Japanese WWII ships off Coron Island are listed in Forbes Traveler Magazine as one of the top-10 best scuba diving sites in the world.
   • Note that if you prefer diving over snorkeling, you can book directly with a local dive shop.
   • They usually require at least 2 days advance notice.
   • Also, you would need to show proof of a scuba diving license.
