"The Philippines has some of the best diving on the planet - this vast archipelago of 7,641 islands scattered across 300,000 sq km of ocean has nearly nine per cent of the world's coral reefs and is the epicenter of global marine biodiversity. From historic wrecks to stunning roller-coaster drift dives; from migrating giant whales sharks to record numbers of nudibranch species - the Philippines has a mind-boggling array of wonderful diving."

Great☺
Personally, I got really into SCUBA DIVING even though I wasn't even much knowledgeable about the underwater life. Things got easier when I had my NAUI Scuba Diver Certification (Posted on my DIARY about SCUBA DIVER Certification).
You will enjoy more scuba diving and exploring the beauty of the underwater world especially when you are diving with great company, friend/dive buddy.
You don't Know how to swim? Newbie? It doesn't matter. Well if you are only for a "first-timer" experience there are a lot of Dive Resorts which offers Introductory Diving which means you can dive underwater but with strictly a supervision of a Certified DiveMaster to tour you around underwater.
Yes you will be able to wear almost the whole diving gears well expect for the Fins. It is actually for safety purpose since the DiveMaster is in control of you underwater and it would be more manageable for the divemaster to control the whole Scuba Diving experience.
Is it Affordable?
Roughly an Introductory Dive would cost around 2,500php+ and still it depends on the Dive Resort regarding their inclusions and published rate though but 2,500php is fair enough.
Where is the best place to go for INTRODUCTORY DIVING? If you live in Metro Manila the best option would be in ANILAO BATANGAS since there are several Dive Resorts offering this Scuba Diving Package and it's not so long drive from Metro Manila depending on the Traffic situation though. To add up also that ANILAO BATANGAS has several Dive Sites and the current is suitable for newbie scuba divers. I've experienced Scuba Diving in Subic which is actually another option but based on my experience the underwater current in subic dive sites are really more than in Anilao although situations such as are really happening underwater ☺
Otherwise if you live or will be visiting somewhere other parts of the Philippines, CORON is really good and in CEBU as well.
To summarize the whole thing because I know it might be boring if I'll be writing a very long blog post, GO FOR IT!! It is actually an experience worth trying or this imaybe the experience that will bring you to a new hobby or passion.
☺☺☺Feel free to reight down on comment section below if you have any further question or any idea you think I might contribute in your upcoming Scuba Diving experience.
For Scuba Diving Certification & Dive Resorts I can suggest some as well.
