Dive Spot Guide•
Yapak 1
Deep wall dive with sharks, tuna, and strong current.
Short boat access from Boracay, but strong current and deep wall sections make this an advanced drift-style dive.
About Yapak 1
Yapak 1 is a deep Boracay wall dive that rewards experienced divers with strong current, clear water, and big-fish action. The site drops quickly off the wall, so the dive is more about staying controlled in the blue and along the reef edge than about lingering in shallow coral. It is a classic advanced boat dive: short access, serious movement, and a lot to see if you keep your trim tight.
