Dona Marilyn Wreck

Generally regarded as the best wreck in the Visayas, ferocious typhoon Ruby (165 km/h winds) on October 24th 1988 sank this large Sulpicio Lines, Cebu to Manila ferry. The Dona Marilyn is the sister ship of the ill fated Dona Paz, which collided with a tanker in 1987, resulting in the worst peacetime maritime accident on record. The true reason for the sinking of the Dona Marilyn is still unclear, however it is believe that her load shifted in the typhoon causing her to capsize. 250 deaths were recorded. With a supply of nutrient rich water the wreck has Abundant Coral Growth, which is inhabited by a large population of fish, flat worms, Nudibranches, Blue Spotted Sting Rays live under the stern and Eagle Rays are commonly seen. The Dona Marilyn lies on its side in 32m of water and remains in good condition
