Descripción
The Camp is based in the south of Manila. Approximately 2-3 hours drive away from the International Airport. A start-up scuba diving and freediving camp. Here we have boats, kayaks, and stand-up paddle boards for leisure time that you may use. A hiking destination is a few minutes away from our camp. Mt. Gulugod-Baboy has camping sites and the view is spectacular. Anilao is well known for the beautiful diving destnations.
Our dive camp is more than a place and our source of livelihood, it is also our home. That is why most of the food we serve are plant and vegetable-based.
This is our way of contributing to the Earth as plant-based products do not impact the environment as much. We encourage everyone to bring plant-based food and we appreciate not bringing any animal meat products in our camp.
With that in mind, kindly avoid bringing single-use plastics. Waste management and disposal are a challenge here in Anilao. And while we segregate our waste before disposal, it's better if we don't have them at all.
Cheers. Smile. Breathe.
Our camp has staff that helps in the kitchen, maintaining the camp. We have boatmen specifically responsible for boat operations.
