Summer is here again, and it’s the perfect time of year to enjoy all the great things Puerto Galera has to offer. Let Scandi Divers Resort provide everything you need to make the most of your summer in Puerto Galera

You won’t find a better location than Big La Laguna Beach if you plan on staying around the Sabang area. It is without a doubt the nicest beach in the area, with white sandy beaches and calm clear waters. It’s a great beach for swimming, snorkeling or just topping up your suntan.

Scandi Divers Resort runs a well respected dive center, with a team of guides and instructors with years of experience and knowledge, both local and international, who are also fluent in several languages. Our dive team is here to take you to the best dive sites Puerto Galera has to offer (all within a few minutes of our resort), and provide diver training for all levels, from novices to career divers.

We have several dive trips running throughout the day and also do night dives, and day trips to Verde Island; An experience not to be missed if you are diving in Puerto Galera.

Our beachfront and terrace restaurants have a wide variety of cuisine available including western and local dishes, and the freshest seafood around. Dine in style while enjoying the stunning views our resort has to offer! We are also the only resorts in Puerto Galera that offer genuine Starbucks coffee to our guests!

Getting to Puerto Galera from Manila only takes about 3 hours by van and boat, and the one hour boat is quite a pleasure. As you traverse the Verde Passage you may even be lucky enough to see dolphins swimming alongside your boat, but even if the dolphins are feeling shy, you will still enjoy the gorgeous views of the ocean, islands and coastlines of the region.

When you stay here, you’ll probably be surprised by the amount of Puerto Galera restaurants. There is everything – from super-cheap “turo turos” where the locals eat, all the way to fine-dining restaurants with professional chefs and delightful dishes. After scuba diving, enjoy a tasty meal!

If you stay at Scandi Divers, you will get to experience our food, which is popular among locals and tourists alike. While we are near the end of Big La Laguna beach, people often come all the way from Sabang to taste our food.

Why would they do that?

First, because it’s tasty. In the Philippines, it can be hard to get tasty food, especially when you’re traveling. But at Scandi Divers, we try to make the tastiest food in the area because we know how much our guests enjoy it. That’s why many think we have one of the best Puerto Galera restaurants.

The second reason why people love it is the variety. At most Puerto Galera restaurants, there is very little variety. Your choices are limited to Filipino food and a small selection of common Western dishes. Like finding tasty food, it can be very hard to find a wide variety of food. That’s why Scandi endeavours to make the most tasty, delightful food in the area.

To show you what we meen, here’s a quick snapshot of just a few things on our menu:
