Description

Explore the underwater attractions of El Nido in Palawan when you book this beginner scuba diving experience. This tour is perfect for those who want to try scuba diving for the first time. You don’t need to worry about arranging everything yourself, as it already comes with the assistance of a divemaster, the use of rental gear with a tank and weight belt, and snacks. Children aged 15 and above can also take part in this experience but will need to secure the permission of their parents or guardians.

You need to meet with the divemaster at Turtle Divers in El Nido on the day of your dive. Once you are there, the divemaster will brief you about the activities for the day. You will learn the basics of scuba diving, like how to use the equipment, breathe underwater, and communicate with fellow divers. Since this is just a Discover dive, you will not get a certification for completing this course. 

The whole activity will take about four hours as you will be going on two dives to help you better get the hang of moving underwater. You may also pick which diving spots you want to explore. Some of your options are South Miniloc, Twin Rocks, West Entalula, Paglugaban Island, Popolkan Island, Helicopter Reef, Natnat Beach, and Address Reef. Please note that the availability of these dive sites also depends on the weather during your tour. 

After you are done with all of your dives, you will be brought back to the mainland so you can enjoy the rest of your time in El Nido on your own.

Immerse yourself into the underwater world of El Nido with this Discover scuba diving experience. Check the availability by choosing a date.
