Our last dive was on the Lusong Gunboat, lying in shallow water between three
and eighteen metres, an excellent spot to do a third dive. Hard corals nicely
covered the wreck and although the visibility was poor, we saw plenty of fish. At
least this time, there were several divers and loads of fun was had between dives.
By evening, all were too lazy to go anywhere and we sat in the restaurant, drank
beer and ate pizzas.
Seadive Resort is situated in the middle of town and on the water’s edge.
Therefore, a convenient location to hang out. The days came and went without me
noticing, apart from socialising with a bunch of crazy divers.
Coron – Manila - By ferry
By morning, I settled my bill, loaded the bike and cycled the short distance to the
ferry. The ferry was late and departed at around 19h00 instead of 15h30, giving
me plenty of time to wander around town.
Coron town was indeed in the eye of the storm, and the damage from typhoon
Yolanda was clearly visible. Only seeing the devastation first-hand, the reality of
the storm became real.
