Lubang Island

The Philippines is one of the world's best diving destinations, and divers come from far and wide to marvel at the country's marine life. Of all the great things to do in the country, diving may be the #1 thing to do – visiting the Philippines without seeing its underwater wonders is like visiting Brazil without seeing the Amazon.

But you don't know how to dive and don't have a scuba certification (license). Perfect! This day tour is designed for people who DO NOT know how to dive. Diving independently requires lessons, training and a certification from a registered diving agency. What we do on this tour, however, is an introductory dive (also referred to as a discovery dive or a resort dive) and the participant does not dive independently. A diving professional manages the person's scuba equipment and controls where and how deep he/she goes. Mostly the participant just breathes and enjoys the underwater scenery. (Visit this tour's gallery to see what an introductory dive is like.)

This tour lets you experience one of the best activities that the Philippines has to offer and opens a whole new world to your terrestrial eyes.

   Jour 1: Discover the underwater world

   You leave Manila early in the morning and drive 2.5 hours to Anilao. In Anilao, a Dive Master will give you a 30-minute briefing on how all the equipment works and teaches you how to do the few things that you need to do yourself, such as breathe with the regulator and equalize your ears. After the briefing, your Dive Master will help you put on your scuba gear, and then you will practice breathing in shallow water. Once you are confident and relaxed with the equipment and your breathing, then your Dive Master will take you for your underwater tour. Depending on your ease and enjoyment underwater, your dive can be as deep as 30 feet (9 meters) and last for as long as 30 minutes.

   You will have time for lunch after the dive, and you can go snorkeling in the afternoon before heading back to Manila.
