Puerto Galera is situated on the northern coast of Mindoro Island (the 5th largest island in the Philippine archipelago chain of 7,107 islands), which is about 12 nautical miles south of Batangas City, Luzon.
One of the big reasons to dive here is for the amazing macro life. Underwater photographers are delighted with the vast selection of different nudibranchs that they can see on just one dive site! Pygmy seahorses, ghost pipefish, frogfish, sea moths, dragonets, stick pipefish, wonderous, mimic octopus, flamboyant cuttlefish are some of the special things that divers can see.
All the dive sites are replete with huge numbers of splendid fishes, huge basket sponges adorned with hundreds of multi-colored crinoids; vast numbers of hard and soft corals and gorgonian sea fans. Turtles, octopus, mantis shrimp, crabs, seahorses, and cuttlefish make guest appearances as well. There are also a few wrecks teaming with fish, that have been sunk purposely to turn into dive sites.
The Verde Island Passage is very deep, so clear water is very common to the dive sites of Puerto Galera, along with a fantastic variety of underwater flora and fauna.
Experts have called The Verde Island Passage the center of the center of the worlds marine biodiversity. Life-enhancing nutrients from the Pacific mix with waters of the South China Sea. You would never guess that beneath the surface are spectacular reef formations with more than 300 species of corals and underwater rock canyons that host nearly 60 percent of the worlds known shorefish species.
The World Conservation Union describes it as the marine counterpart of the Amazon River basin, which put the passage at the peak of the Coral Triangle that spans the Sulawesi and the Sulu Seas in the southern Philippines and nearby Indonesia.
Asia Divers is the Philippines first PADI Career Development Center (CDC), where experienced instructors and divemasters, guide guests on world-class dive sites, all only a short boat ride away. Asia Divers has been in business for 28 years and is known for its high standard of teaching across all PADI courses, from Bubblemakers for kids to Divemaster and Instructor level courses. Many of the Divemasters and Instructors working in the area were trained by Asia Divers.
The dive facility is just a few years old and there is nothing like it in Asia. There is a diving platform with a large pontoon on which boats can easily dock on making it simple for guests to board and disembark.
Every diver has their own crate in the dive shop to store their gear, and there is a dedicated camera room with a computer available and rinse tank specifically for cameras.
Its very spacious so even when the shop is busy you never feel crowded. The calm, relaxed atmosphere lets you know that youre being well looked after by the crew who are always there to help you with anything you may need.
