About this site
The LST (Landing Ship Tank) is a 90-metre World War II amphibious vessel lying in Subic Bay, Philippines, purpose-built to land tanks and troops directly onto beaches. The wreck sits at depths of 28–35 metres, making it one of the deeper recreational wreck dives in the bay.
The hull is large enough that giant groupers have taken up residence in the interior sections, while trevally and jacks patrol the perimeter. The site's depth and the substantial size of the vessel mean air consumption becomes a key consideration on every dive.
Subic Bay's enclosed geography keeps conditions protected, with light currents and surface conditions that are rarely rough. Water temperature holds between 27–29°C, and visibility across the bay ranges from 5–30 metres depending on site and season, with the best diving generally running November through May.

Advanced Open Water certification is required to dive the LST, given its depth and the air management demands of a wreck this size. A torch is recommended for examining hull interiors, and a surface marker buoy should be carried for safety stops.
