Savedra Dive Center
Moalboal, CebuAbout this dive shop
Dive with the Pioneers – Savedra Dive Center, Moalboal Founded in 1983, Savedra Dive Center has been at the heart of Moalboal’s vibrant dive scene for over four decades. As one of the most established and trusted PADI 5 Star IDC Centers in the Philippines, we’ve introduced thousands of divers to the incredible underwater world of the Visayas — and we’d love for you to be next. Our front yard? Only one of the most spectacular underwater phenomena in the world — the Sardine Run. Just steps from our doorstep, millions of shimmering sardines swirl and shift in massive bait balls, attracting a frenzy of marine life from reef predators to occasional pelagics. And the best part? You don’t need a boat. This natural wonder happens right off the beach, accessible all year round with a simple shore entry. But Moalboal offers more than just sardines. With Savedra, you’ll explore a wide range of world-class dive sites like Pescador Island, famous for its cathedral-like swim-throughs and colorful walls. Expect frequent encounters with turtles, schools of snapper, batfish, barracuda, and the occasional reef shark. Night dives, deep dives, drift dives — it’s all part of the adventure here. We run daily boat dives to top local dive sites, as well as guided shore dives right in front of the dive center. Our house reef is an underwater playground — a stunning coral slope leading to a deep wall, alive with marine biodiversity. As a proud PADI 5 Star Instructor Development Center and PADI Eco Center, we’re passionate about high-quality diver training and protecting the marine environment. Whether you’re here to fun dive, start your Open Water course, or take the leap into pro-level training with a Divemaster or IDC program, you’re in expert hands. Located right in the center of Panagsama Beach, Savedra is surrounded by local restaurants, bars, and chill beach vibes — the perfect spot to relax between dives or celebrate a certification with new friends. Join us at Savedra Dive Center and become part of the legacy — where passion for diving meets decades of experience and a front-row seat to nature’s underwater theater.
