I'm in Anilao right now, just came over from Puerto Galera and have done budget style trips to Komodo and Raja Ampat.
Komodo runs about USD 115 per dive day (Scuba Junkie Komodo). Plus the crazy $25 per day tourist tax.
Raja Ampat about USD 115 per dive day also, very basic homestays with diving. Fixed $70 tourist tax per visit.
Puerto Galera I managed to get by with USD 80 per dive day (plus 15 USD extra for Verde Island)
All including food, 3 dives a day and basic accomodation. Own gear.
I dived Puerto Galera Canyons on slack tide yesterday. Disappointing, given how much its hyped up.. hardly any big fish. Corals isn't in that great a shape either. Anthias frenzy though. Batu Bolong in Komodo or Raja Ampat in general is way better.
