I’m so glad I went and did my refresher course here. Everyone was so professional, helpful, lovely and made me feel really safe. Damien did my pool session and he was so patient with me. Antonio took me out diving and he also was really patient, understanding and made sure that I felt safe and had a good time. I would highly recommend this center and if I’m ever back in Siargao I’ll go back out for a dive with them for sure.

Did a couple of dives with these guys. Everything was well organized, friendly and efficient - boat was sited close to the dive shop which is near the centre of town, by the pier, next to the market. Nice bunch of people and a good atmosphere. Prices reasonable. Not busy. Changing facilities a little basic but acceptable. It's perhaps worth pointing out that Siargao is not particularly noted for its diving and there are (currently) only one or two diveshops situated in and around the main tourist area. Nonetheless, the two dives I did were OK - some quite nice canyon/rock features and reasonable visibility. If you're looking for days of hard core diving then there are better areas within the Visayas region. If you are simply looking for an alternative to surfing for a day or two then Palaka is recommended.
Just enjoyed two days of great diving with the Palaka Siargao Dive Center. The two dive leaders are the best we have had in the Philippines. They were thoughtful and patient. High quality equipment too. The dive shop is located by a market, a safe area to visit with lots of nice resorts and local food. Already looking forward to returning
Restaurant has great food! Certifide PADI diving center. Really friendly staff everywhere! The dive was great! Thanks
I did my open water certification at Palaka with my husband and a buddy of ours in July. We had never done any diving before and though originally I was not nervous about it at all, the more I started reading about it through the padi online course the more nervous I got thinking about all the things that could go wrong. Had it not been Theo leading our dives I don't think those nerves would have gone away. He was exactly the kind of diving instructor one would hope for. The perfect balance of professional and fun. Strict about safety yet chill and nice. He really inspires trust and I immediately felt at ease in his hands. The waters we went to were beautiful, calm and crystal clear. It was such good fun and I am so pleased this was my first experience diving. The only problem is that the following dives we did with other instructors on other islands paled in comparison.
Had a great diving experience with Palaka. Very organized and friendly staff. Damien was a great Dive Master. Short trip to dive site on the speed boat. All equipment in good condition. Right next to the town market. Easy to find.
I took my open water in December with Theo as the dive master. It was really great! Theo was a great instructor, I felt very safe and the diving was amazing. Good location also of the dive center. I would really recommend Palaka Dive Center!
Hello guys, are you open or still closed?? I am interested in doing Divemaster course and maybe work for you to afford it.
