HOW WE STARTED
Pacific Divers is one of the best pioneering SCUBA diving centres in Puerto Galera. In 1980, it became the first to be established at the area's prettiest location — White Beach.
We are one of the longest-established diving operators in Puerto Galera and take great pride in our reputation for combining safety-conscious, professional service with a friendly, laid-back atmosphere. Diving here is conducted from traditional Filipino bancas, with small personalized groups split by skill and experience level. A wide variety of courses are also offered by a patient and friendly international team.
We became known for our elegant traditional wooden outrigger bancas which glide across the sea to over 30 stunning world renowned dive sites, where we love sharing the local wonders and beauty of the hidden underwater world.
We are a family run business and have stewarded Pacific Divers since 1991 and are keenly aware of the importance of active ecological education in order to continue protecting our oceans and wider natural environment.
We’ve evolved over the last few decades as a personalized niche Dive Centre with extensive local knowledge of the dive sites and the need to protect them for the future.
