Chillout, Soulout & Freakout

To be honest, I only recommend avid divers to visit Malapascua Island. There are not much activities for non-divers to do on this island. Furthermore, it is not worth it for a non-diver to travel all the way for this island. There were used to be a lot of great snorkeling sites on this island for example the wreck dive near the lighthouse which is just 5-10m deep! That is a World War II battleship!!! You will hardly see such a shallow wreck. Unfortunately, it has been ransacked by the locals. The wreck is no longer there. By the way, you can check my previous post on how to get to this island .
