Scandi Divers offer daily diving to the 40+ local dive sites, all within a 15 minute boat ride from the resort. Coral gardens, wrecks and canyons filled with gorgonians, sponges, and a multitude of marine life, from tiny critters through to pelagic species, it has it all. The resort also offers night and blackwater diving for qualified divers. In addition, regular trips to Verde Island can be arranged.

Mindoro is a dream diving destination. The region’s tropical climate offers year round diving with everything from easy shore dives and deep drifts, to penetrable wrecks. It has something for everyone: offering beginners a protected bay and shallow reef – whilst more advanced divers are also well catered for at the remote Verde Island, where large pelagic species ride the strong currents in the Verde Island Passage. The area was designated a Man and Biosphere Reserve of UNESCO and has some of the most diverse coral reef diving in Asia. Puerto Galera is located at the very heart of the ‘Coral Triangle’.
