About Cebu Pioneer Wreck
Cebu Pioneer Wreck is a deep, upright wreck off Malapascua that suits qualified technical teams rather than casual recreational divers. It is a short boat ride from the island, but the dive still needs a disciplined gas plan and the right tide window to make sense. Treat it as a serious wreck dive with staged ascent planning, local support, and a small margin for sloppy execution.
