PHOTOGRAPHY and WORDS BY MARIANO SAYNO

Subic bay is well known for its collection of shipwrecks from the past, as well as being visited frequently by the American Navy for military exercises. It is located on the west coast of Luzon, about 62 miles northwest of Manila Bay on the island of Luzon. In the past, its shores were home to a major naval base run by the United States Navy known as U.S. Naval Base Subic Bay, which is now the site of an industrial and commercial zone known as the Subic Bay Freeport Zone, which is a special economic zone that has been established for the purpose of economic development.
