Amazing dive resort! The equipment, boat, and resort were all very clean and well organized. I'm from Ireland and had no issues communicating with them as everyone spoke very good English and are also incredibly friendly and helpful. I haven't gone diving for 3 years due to COVID and Jojo, one of the divemasters, was very patient with me and made sure I was safe and comfortable during our check dive. I would definitely recommend Tropical Divers to divers of all levels and am looking forward to diving with them again!

Stop searching now! This dive center is your must-have PADI center in Bohol. After we arrived of our delayed boat from Cebu, the dive center was unfortunately closed. We wanted to dive the next day, so I sent them a message through Facebook. The boss, Nick, replied in 15 min to tell us we could join the boat tomorrow.
After our first 2 dives and meeting our Dive master, Tony (a fantastic British bloke of 76 with more then 20 years of diving experience and 3600 dives logged), we were convinced and instantly booked our advanced open water course. Which was cheap!!
During our course, Tony keeps you extra relaxed and tells you all about the area and what to watch out for. Be sure to ask him about his views on global warming, surfing a whale shark and pre-tips on finding a Filipino girlfriend. You'll be amazed! He is funny as hell!
A no brainer! BOOK NOW!

My experience getting the OWC with Ian from Tropical Divers was amazing. Ian’s patient and calming demeanor enabled me to overcome my long standing fear of deep water. Ian took the time to explain each scenario above water and made me comfortable under water to perform them myself. He is native to Bohol with well over 200 dives in local area. Don’t miss their location at the far end of Alona Beach...Highly recommend!!

I recently completed my PADI open water here on a trip to the Philippines. We were in the sea from the get go (no pool so it helped us get used to the environment).
We advised Alex that we only had 3 days, so wanted to complete in this time and they were more than accommodating. Lucky for us there was a good 1:1 ratio which meant we had the attention and support we needed.
My friend decided part way through that it wasn’t her, and they tried to make her as comfortable as possible with the water before she changed her mind. It would have been good to have more familiarisation if we had more time to complete the course and I’m sure they would have helped us out with that.
Passed first time and got to see some amazing things! Only thing to suggest would be a variation of dive sites. We went to the same house reef for all 4 dives so would have been good to experience somewhere else.

Alex and team have done a fabulous job in setting up with this awesome dive shop. They are organized, clear in communication and have the best equipment. We did our open water and advanced refresher courses and it was the best decision to go with Tropical Divers. Alex himself is one of the best dive instructor i have come across and i would recommend to everyone.

I had a very good experience in the diving center where Alex helped me plan my trip ahead and was very responsive. The diving lessons were smooth and nice and the instructor / dive masters always helpful and funny! We had a great time there with the other students! I definitely recommend to go there for the PADI lessons and for the experience!

My brother and I had our first diving course:Open Water Diving, here and it was so great. Our instructor, Alex, was good at explaining the instructions both on land and down in water. The flow of the course is well-organised. Students can achieve tasks step by step. I especially appreciate that Alex encouraged us to do the tasks by our own self until we are confident enough. We only tried diving once before coming to Tropical Divers. The experience this time definitely gives us more confidence in diving. Thank you for all the staff who have helped us before, not only Alex but also Ilya and Tania. Great to have you guys as our diving buddy. Look forward to seeing you again in the future.

TROPICAL DIVERS FOR ME IS THE BEST DIVE CENTER IN BOHOL. Kudos to kuya IAN, kuya JASON, and kuya JOJO for making our intro-dive the most memorable experience this year. We had a great time. They are hands on and they take good care of us. They made sure that we are enjoying the activity. The entire experience we had were great! I surely recommend this to anyone and also to all my friends! More power to y'all!

If they are 8 years old or above, they can try scuba diving in the pool, if 10 years they can get the junior PADI license! And snorkeling for sure will be great activity for kids.
