Small family resort with its own diving center
The resort has its own dive center, and equipment and storage facilities are available here. Otherwise, the resort is simple but functional, you come here to dive or snorkel and there is also some to see and experience on land. Some waterfalls, the city of Maasin, beautiful views of nature and if you want a massage, it can also be offered in the rooms. You can go here all year round and dive but it can be windy July – November normally.
Rain can occur all year round and it normally rains about half the days of the year in this part of the Philippines. But it is mostly afternoons, evenings and nights and it is part of a tropical climate. This is a wonderful destination for those who want to experience something new below the surface and get the chance to see whale sharks in their natural state as they pass through.

Diving in Southern Leyte with SBSR
A small resort with a small diving center but very good guides and staff. Boats are available for day trips, but sometimes you go by car a bit north or south and dive from land. You can also step in directly from the beach and experience the wonderful house reef that is buzzing with life. The house reef has been slowly supplemented with artificial aid to help the corals grow. Two dives per day are usually offered between breakfast and lunch and then you can do another one in the afternoon if you have the stamina, wind and weather permitting. You can also go down to and do night dives at the Padre Burgos pier which can be downright magically good. The boats are traditional bangka boats and take you to the different dive sites and they are very varied.
Very varied diving
Coral reefs, slopes with white or black sand, wall dives that are absolutely fantastic at Napantao Marine reserve and that's how you wish all the world's reefs looked. Limasawa Island offers great visibility and wall and reef diving with occasional passing whale sharks, sharks, rays, other large animals and schools of large fish.
Turtles are common and here you will find large quantities of exciting invertebrates and strange fish. It is quite common to see dolphins from a distance when you go to and from dive sites on the other side of the bay. Sometimes they come right up to the boat and surf the bow wave, which usually results in a commotion and lots of smiles. Southern Leyte and Sogod Bay offer incredibly good diving with great variety. The crowning glory is if you get to dive or snorkel with whale sharks in their natural environment and it is quite common for them to pass through these waters.
