The coastline around here is truly spectacular and with deep bays and inlets surrounded by tropical forests it is a nature lovers and photographers dream. For the adventurous there are many secluded beaches and hidden valleys just waiting to be explored.
Sabang has attracted visitors and residents from different parts of the globe and has now developed a very cosmopolitan feel, this is reflected by the wide range of restaurant styles and resorts available. Needless to say, seafood and Filipino food is popular but you can also eat English, German, Thai, Mexican and Japanese amongst others. There are a good number of bars and Sabang has a busy night time scene.
In addition to diving, the adventurous water sports enthusiast will also want to go kayaking, snorkelling, wind surfing and sailing. Back on land there is a golf course just a few kilometres from the resort and there are many opportunities to visit local waterfalls, go jungle trekking and island hopping. The beach adjacent to the dive shop and resort is perfect for sunbathing and for watching the world go by. Sunset cruises are available and there are also motorbikes for hire.

The Diving
People would not come here unless the diving first class and it does not disappoint. With over 450 identified species of coral the area around Puerto Galera is home to some of the best marine bio-diversity on the planet. Blessed with clear waters and warm temperatures and with easy access to the dive sites this is a perfect dive destination.
There is something here for every diver from easy beginners and training dives to fast pace exhilarating drift dives. The reefs close to the dive centre are a dream for photographers with beautiful coral formations to be seen everywhere.
The most famous dive site has to be Canyons, a must visit for all experienced divers. It is here that the currents which encourage the profusion of marine life in the area really make a big impact. Strong surges along the wall mean that divers and fish alike seek shelter in three distinct canyons. You will find yourself having a short rest in each one surrounded by snappers, jacks, sweet lips and barracuda, occasionally bigger creatures such as sharks and tuna swim by. The end of the dive is often an ascent through the deep blue towards the surface.
On all dives you are likely to see parrot and angelfish, Moorish idols, snappers and red mouth triggers. Moray and ribbon eels are common and it is not unusual to see turtles.
A short boat journey of about thirty minutes takes you to Verde Island where steep walls and drop offs are the background to waters teeming with fish life.
There are several wrecks within close range of Asia Divers and all are a haven for reef fish and macro life such as ghost pipe fish, nudibranch, and sea horses. make sure you bring your camera!
