Hi, I won a trip for a dive vacation at the Atlantis resort either at the Dumaguete or Puerto Galera location. I was looking for recommendations on best time of year to go. I have to take the trip by August 2026 so I have a bit less than a year to take this. I also would like to see whale sharks...
A yellow #nudibranch was spotted off the coast of Dumaguete in the Philippines. This sea slug might be a Gymnodoris sp.#scubadiving #seaslug #seacreatures
My girlfriend and I had our first diving experience in Raja Ampat and we currently have 10 dives under our belt. While on a family vacation in October, we will go for our AOW and are planning a holiday/work trip to the Philippines first and China afterwards (for work).
Due to the convenient...
Anilao: Beyond the Nudibranchs
Anilao is famous as the "Nudibranch Capital of the World," and for good reason—it's a paradise for macro photographers. But beyond its tiny wonders, Anilao boasts spectacular coral reefs.
During my recent trip to Buceo Anilao Beach & Dive Resort in April and May...
Considering a stay at this dive resort in the Philippines. Anyone have experience staying there? Thanks for any info. I’ve been to Atlantis and I know to a great extent you get what you pay for. I realize it won’t be as fancy but I’m looking for a “best bang for your buck” kind of place.
Please watch my new film "The Tiny Wonders of Anilao", which will take you into the hidden, magical world beneath the surface—where tiny creatures, many smaller than a grain of rice, dazzle with color, behavior, and mystery. From rare nudibranchs to camouflaged critters, the rich macro life of...
Hey guys, I just came back from diving with the threshers in Malapascua Island. Absolutely incredible, they came so close that I could have kissed them if I had extended my lips!
Just wanted to share some photos and also a video I made from my trip (youtube link below). It was my first trip...

Hi everyone - new to the forum here! I am planning a last minute trip to the Philippines over Chinese New Year (Jan 27 to Feb 4/5 - undecided on which day exactly I'll leave), and looking at potential options.
My initial thoughts are:
- Day 1: Fly to Manila (from HK), then internal flight to...
Hi,
I’ll be visiting the Philippines this Dec and looking to take up OW course and do my first dive as well. I’ll be in Manila for a week and another week in Cebu.
Seeking recommendations for diving spots / schools that are beginner friendly and have great reef.
So far, I have gathered the...
Just returned from diving with “Scandi Divers” in Puerto Galera (PG) on Mindoro Island just south of the main Island (Luzon) and a 40-minute boat ride from Batangas Port. From Manila airport, all in its about 2.5 – 3 hour trip, easily arranged by the Award-Winning Staff at Scandi. Just one of...
Hello, I'm new to ScubaBoard and I wanted to ask a general question about doing my dive master training in the Philippines this winter.
There seem to be many different islands, options, and prices for programs. If anybody has experience diving in the area, what should I expect for the total...
Hi! I'm planning a trip to either El Nido or Bohol sometime in January with a few friends! I'm mostly leaning towards El Nido because I want to see the wrecks and the underwater Dimalucad Cave because they seem to be very beginner friendly. Would a 3mm suit be alright for it? Since this is a...
Hello members
It’s my first time here and so happy to discover this forum.
I’m a newbie diver and have done close to 15 dives, which started as a fun dive and I realized how much I enjoyed being in the sea, seeing the world which is usually unseen and just being in the present.
My last dive...
