There are hundreds of centers diving, some very remote, spread throughout the country. Sites in the Philippines are famous for the diversity and variety of marine life from small and medium variety. They are among the best in the world, for both experienced and novice divers.

The best time for diving in the Philippines during the months of November to May. The season of rain for most of the country is from July to September, and should be avoided since this time corresponds to the typhoon season. Beginning in November and ends in May is which is considered the dry season. At this time, the sea became flat calm and bright blue, with incredible visibility especially during April and May.

Here are some of the most sought after dive sites in the Philippines, places that I consider to be 6 points higher for diving in the Philippines.

1. Apo Island

This is a small volcanic island off the southeastern tip of Negros Island. This site is considered the best place in all of the Philippines – the Mother of all dive sites in the Philippines. It is also home to one of the most successful and best – run marine sanctuaries in the Philippines. It is a favorite among divers for its excellent visibility. It is home to big fish, mantas, white tip, hammerhead and whale sharks. However, the currents are strong so it's not for a beginner with no experience.
