Scuba Diving
Scuba diving in Palawan is rated as some of the best in the world and the World War II wrecks in our area are world famous.
Iris Island Eco Resort does not have its own scuba shop on the island but we work with other scuba companies only 15 minutes away from the island.
For those who would like to participate in a dive using scuba equipment, we can organize it so you can see one or more of the famous sunken World War II wrecks. In fact some of the most popular sunken wreck dives are just minutes away from our island. A few of our neighboring resorts specialize in diving, rent dive equipment and have very experienced instructors and guides and they will pick you up and return you back to our island.
