Hello everyone!
Welcome to another freediving video! I've been to Malapascua Island about three times already and for the first two vacations we had on the island, I wasn't able to take videos of the shipwreck that made the island famous aside from the white beaches. I made a promise in my previous posts about the island that I'll definitely go back and explore the Japanese shipwreck, and then share them with you. Here it is!
already shared her video, so I guess it's my turn. Visibility was not good at that time, but we didn't have a choice. It was still a fun dive. The shipwreck is only about 6 meters below the surface and it's near the lighthouse of the island. Depending on the season and current, there are times that the sand underwater gets disturbed, so it's inevitable to have poor visibility.
According to the guides, the shipwreck was from a Japanese ship that sunk during World War II. Due to the age of the shipwreck, what's left was basically the hull of the ship and it will not be long before everything's taken over by corals. If you happen to visit Cebu, I recommend to visit Malapascua Island and see the shipwreck for yourself before it will completely disintegrate.
