Diving on Camiguin

Camiguin Island is a great place for Scuba Diving. Not only that there are plenty of dive sites very near to the tourist beaches, every dive site offers a complete different environment under water.

  • Camiguin Action Geckos Dive & Adventure Resort is under German management and offers professional dive trips and PADI Courses. Also available: Action Tours to volcanoes and water falls including trekking, canoeing, rapelling, river and volcano climbing.
