Cebu Dive Center - Bohol

Cebu Dive Center, despite the name, is our go-to in Bohol when we want something straightforward and reliable. They’re located right where you want to be for exploring the Dauis and Panglao reefs, which means quick boat trips to some genuinely stunning spots. We’ve had some cracking dives with their team, particularly around Balicasag Island, where the schools of jacks often just hang out in the current, and the walls are riddled with cracks holding all sorts of critters. They suit divers who appreciate a no-fuss approach and want to maximize their time in the water, rather than in briefings. It’s a solid choice for exploring Bohol’s better-known sites with experienced local guides.
