Definitely in my recommendations list for divers. The wrecks have served as habitat for fish and coral, penetration dives are also allowed and you can see the wheelhouse, cargo holds, boilers and such...definitely will come back to these wrecks...
9. Barracuda Lake
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By jun_r - Sacramento, United States
This place was suggested as a dive spot. I was initially skeptical as I didn’t think there was much to experience in a freshwater lake. Was I ever wrong. Diving this lake is an other wordly experience. It is eerie and magical at the same time. The water is cold as you go in but as you descend it SUDDENLY turns warm… almost too warm so you don’t actually want to wear a wetsuit when you dive here. The change in water temp was so sudden that my mask fogged up so you’ll need to brush up on your mask clearing skills if you want to see anything here. The lake itself is pretty deep so you want to dive close to the edges to experience the limestone structures that line the sides of the lake. They also have some really friendly freshwater catfish in there that you can practically hand feed by breaking up some of the snails on the lake bed.

Reviewed By pochaycruz - Las Pinas, Philippines
Its only passable by kayak if low tide or swim through the opening if its high-tide. I have experienced both and would recommend the latter as you can feel the change of temp of the cool sea water and warm fresh water. A bit difficult to climb the stairs and its a slippery was well so take precaution if you manage to climb the stairs.
