Congratulations to Svein and Bendik Stormark, father and son dive buddies, who came all the way from Norway to do their PADI Open Water course with us at Scandi Divers.
If you want to learn to Scuba Dive, Puerto Galera is amazing place to take your course. The waters are clear and warm, with gentle currents and some of the most amazing marine life you could ever hope to see.
Out of the water, there is lots to do! Beaches, watersports, adventure sports, lots of restaurants and bars. You will never be at a loss for fun things to do on vacation in Puerto Galera.

Just a snort snippet of the 54 baby turtles that hatched recently near Scandi Divers. The baby turtles have been moved to Coco Beach as part of their Turtle Sanctuary program, and will remain there for 2-3 years before being released. Hopefully with a better chance of surviving to adulthood.
We wish them the best and will be popping in to visit them when we can 🙂

They finished off the trip with a farewell dinner at the Scandi Sky Bar, with a beautifully cooked pork lechon as the guest of honor!
Come back soon guys 🙂

Thanks to Finn for this video of our divers swimming along with a beautiful turtle in Big La Laguna Bay, just outside Scandi Divers Resort. There’s some really nice close-up stuff about 1 minute in.
Turtles are regular visitors to Big La Laguna, and one of our favourites. So graceful in the water, they are an absolute pleasure to watch up close.
Book your dream Philippines tropical diving vacation with us, and you’ll be swimming turtles and other amazing creatures before you know it!
