The  waters of the Verde Island Passage around Puerto Galera provide rich reward for technical divers. The 25 or so regular spots visited by recreational divers have been joined in the last few years by at least the same number of dive sites in deeper waters, the vast majority of them within fifteen minutes boat ride of the beach. The diving is predominantly drift diving, although some sites have several hours window without current. Most places are reefs, small wrecks and stepped deep walls ranging from 45m to around 85-90m ( 300ft.). A great number of these deeper reefs give relatively easy access to shallow water for decompression. On others, drifting open water decompression is normal. The resort diving area is swept by tidal currents keeping water clear and clean, and have enjoyed a protected status from fishing for many years. The less visited deeper areas are consequently pristine, providing tremendous topography and fascinating marine life.

 All dive sites are within 15 minutes by boat from the resort. Groups are kept small to give a better & more personalised service.

Moderate currents. Temperature range from 22 - 30 degrees Celsius & diving is year round.
