Anilao

Anilao, Philippines

On the coast of Batangas, Anilao is one of the world’s leading destinations for muck and macro diving, renowned for its extraordinary diversity of small and unusual marine life. Beyond its famous critter-rich sites, the area also offers reefs, walls and a variety of underwater environments to explore. 

Private transfers from Ninoy Aquino International Airpot (MNL) are included and typically take three to four hours.

Our preferred time for Anilao experiences is November to May, outside the wetter months.

The Experience

The resort’s purpose-designed infinity dive pool provides a controlled setting for new divers to learn and for certified divers to build confidence or refine existing skills before heading into open water.

Somatic practices and reflective sessions take place at the resort and are open to all participants. Between activities, there is time to enjoy the pool, arrange an in-room massage or simply rest.

Full board is included, with excellent meals served on site and warm hospitality from the local team. Anilao is particularly well suited to those who want diving to be the focus of their stay, as well as non-diving companions looking for a quiet place to slow down.
