Dive center

Pirate Divers Busuanga

PADI 5 Star Dive Center

We aim to provide a high quality, friendly and safe service, with a nice family atmosphere.

Groups will never have to dive with other people, we always have at least 4 fully trained dive staff at the shop, with a mixture of Europeans and Filipino Dive Masters and Instructors. The dive will be tailored to your needs, we are very flexible, as you have to be in the Philippines!

We offer PADI Courses from Discover Scuba, Open Water to Advanced Open Water and Rescue Diver. Divemaster Courses are available at special request.

We also offer a host of speciality courses, Deep, wreck, advanced buoyancy, nitrox, plus many, many more.

We are located 40km outside of Coron in the little town of Concepcion. We chose this location due to its very close proximity to the wrecks and beautiful white sand beach islands. We are only 15-40minutes by boat to all the sites, compared to a 2hr trip from Coron itself.

What to expect

Doing your PADI open water dive course in a safe and reaxed in environment is a prioity to us. We pride ourself on taking our time with dive students to really get the most out of the training. We provide E-Learning codes so the theory can be done before you arrive so you can really focus on the fun part of learning to dive on your vacation. 

The PADI Open Water Diver course consists of three main phases. The first is Knowledge Development, which is done prior to the course online. The second is Confined Water Dives, which are training sessions conducted in water with pool-like conditions. They give you the opportunity to get used to the gear you'll be using and practice the basic skills of diving and techniques to keep you safe. The third is your Open Water Dives. This is what it's all about - you'll make your first dives in the ocean! During four dives, you'll perform various skills under water and on the surface to make sure you're a safe and competent diver. As soon as your open water training dives are approved by your instructor you will be certified as a PADI Open Water Diver! This means you will be allowed to rent diving equipment and dive anywhere in the world down to 18 meters, lifelong!
