The Challenge: Advanced Diving in Boracay
Already certified? New Wave Divers is your gateway to Boracay’s most exciting and challenging sites. Get ready for an adventure.
- The Wrecks: Test your buoyancy and exploring skills at two fascinating wrecks:
- Camia 2 (30m): A sunken ship teeming with life! Look for massive schools of red snapper, yellowfin tuna, blue trevally, nudibranchs, and the ultimate master of camouflage, the ghost pipefish.
- Tribird (30m): Dive into a piece of history at this submerged plane wreck. Explore the cockpit and spot scorpionfish and pipefish hiding among the fuselage.
- Deep Drift Walls: For the ultimate thrill, we offer exhilarating deep drift dives at Yapak and Punta Bunga Wall (30–35m). These beautiful walls are draped in soft corals and, thanks to the often strong currents, are known playgrounds for pelagic species and our resident white tip reef shark family.
Dive with New Wave Divers: The Premium Experience
Your holiday time is precious. We eliminate the typical dive center hassle so you can focus purely on the diving.
- Logistics Simplified: Book your dive in minutes. Your gear will be prepared and waiting before you even arrive.
- Our Purpose-Built Boat: Designed specifically for divers, our boat features comfortable seating, ample shaded area, and rubberized flooring. With tank holders and a low freeboard, back-roll entries are safe and comfortable for up to 16 guests.
