Diving a submerged plane in Boracay is the highlight of this spectacular scuba video. Dave and Kim visit the Tribird dive site off Boracay Island in the Philippines, where a sunken aircraft rests on the seabed and turns an ordinary reef dive into an underwater wreck adventure.
The Tribird Dive Site
Tribird is one of the more unusual dive sites around Boracay because of its submerged plane, which has become an artificial reef over time. Wreck dives like this attract divers looking for something beyond coral gardens, and the video captures the eerie thrill of swimming around an aircraft on the ocean floor.
What a Wreck Dive Feels Like
Descending toward a sunken plane is a very different experience from a standard reef dive. The structure looms out of the blue, marine life gathers on its surfaces, and every pass reveals new angles. For viewers who have never tried wreck diving, the footage shows exactly why divers talk about these sites for years afterward.
Scuba Diving in Boracay
Boracay is best known for White Beach, but its surrounding waters offer solid diving for beginners and experienced divers alike. This video rounds out the channel's Boracay diving coverage, which also includes multiple days with a local dive academy, and makes a strong case for adding a dive day to any Boracay itinerary.
