Definitely. You can take up PADI International Diving Certification Courses as well as PADI Experience Programs with us. As for fun dives, Apo Island comes highly recommended, as it is one of the best dive sites in the world.

If you were certified with PADI, we can check your number through the internet. Our dive instructor, however, will ask to review your basic skills with you before he can give a go-signal for you to dive at his discretion. The same goes for certified divers who haven’t dived for some time—our instructor will be reviewing your skills with you and gauge your comfort level in the water, before giving the go signal. You could also opt to take a refresher course with us (Scuba Review).

Yes, diving equipment (BCDs, regulators, wetsuits, fins, weights, etc) and snorkeling sets are available for rent, while you may use our life vests, free of charge.
