Diving in Anilao, Philippines

Anilao, just south of the great world metropolis of Manila, has become, and rightfully so, one of the Philippines' most popular destinations for divers in recent years. There is fantastic so-called muck diving here. Large areas of sand and mud and interspersed here and there oases with corals and reefs. In addition, amazing reefs, steep rock walls and coral gardens with lots of marine life, fish and enormous species richness. Here there are farts of all imaginable sizes, colors and shapes, even sometimes reef sharks, turtles, tuna, barracuda and other species are sometimes seen, but also stingrays, eagle rays, mantas with luck.

The invertebrates, cephalopods, nudibranchs, crustaceans and echinoderms dominate together with sponges, sea urchins and various corals or sea urchins. The diversity of species is fantastic and all dive sites are relatively close so there are rarely long trips. The diving is varied and different animals thrive more or less well in different places, which is why one day is rarely the same as the next. But with the help of experienced guides with familiar eyes and knowledge of marine life, you will be able to experience a lot of fun and excitement with a variety of strange creatures that you might not have thought or even knew existed. The house reef here is one of the best in the Philippines with amazing macro life.

Anilao is a real diving paradise and you can actually go here all year round as the weather is relatively stable and the area is very calm and peaceful. If it's windy, there's almost always an alternative. For those of you who want to extend the trip either at the beginning or after, it is entirely possible and we will help you find good solutions for this.

Buceo Anilao resort

You will live at Buceo Anilao resort. This is a small resort and is a bit secluded so there is peace and quiet. The rooms are simply furnished but offer good comfortable accommodation and what you need to enjoy and relax. All rooms have their own shower and toilet, air conditioning and a veranda outside where it is nice to relax for a while after the day's activities. Breakfast is offered here in the accommodation and we include full board to make the trip more manageable. There is a bar, massage, a lovely pool and of course diving. The resort is not for those looking for luxury, the luxury is to be here and dive but it is very charming and pleasant. 10 diving days with 2 dives / day are included. For those who want 3 or 4 dives a day, it can be arranged in advance.
