Rashid was my guide for both the glass bottom kayak and snorkeling. Had a great time with him and the sardines! He took really love pictures, and was so sweet and patient overall. I would love to come back and learn to free dive with him someday.

Our family participated in the Glass Bottom Boat Tour with the Panglao Freedive Academy. We had John, Rashid and Arnold as our tour guides. They were amazing an helpful, as were all the staff during our booking! I highly recommend you request for those tour guides if you plan on going! Thank you so much to all the staff for an amazing experience!

Level 1, 2 and 3 SSI then 3 months of master training and I've loved it. The academy is a great place to learn and train. Poolside is very chill and relaxed yet focused and knowledgeable with all the trainers and masters. You can very much be focused on your own goals and train at your own pace! Then the line diving at Napaling reef is fantastic.

The staff are super helpful and friendly as well. I've loved my time here and hope I can come again!

Unbeatable location. Training atmosphere is also very good. Friendly, supportive and approachable. If you’re thinking about getting one of the freediving certificates like me, this is one of the best places to do it.

If you’re interested in no fins at all, I would start with molchanovs. I got my Aida 3 cert before coming here for wave a 3 course and I would’ve been better off had I done a molchanovs wave 2 instead of Aida 3. Because molchanovs introduces no fins early on and you’ll save time during later levels. There are other differences too but no fins is the main one for me.

My instructor is Scott. I really appreciate his views on long term diving journey and focus on solving issues instead of the number (in his words, if you solve the problems, the numbers will come naturally). I’m thankful that he calmed my anxiety of meeting the level requirements.

Last but not least, big thanks to Emily who orchestrated our trainings and gave many useful info about diving, places to eat, recommended activities during rest (no diving) day. 多谢！后会有期🫶

I had a really great time doing my AIDA2 and AIDA 3 course here. The instructor was super clear and easy to learn from. Communication was great from start to finish.

The location is perfect, right by Napaling, so we could just walk out and dive straight in—no long boat rides or complicated logistics. They also had a lot of gear available, and I ended up buying most of my equipment directly from them, which was really convenient.

I was solo traveling, and the whole team made me feel really welcome. Emily, the owner, was especially helpful—she made sure everything ran smoothly and was always around to help out or answer questions. Everyone at the center was friendly and supportive, which made a big difference. Not to mention Jay, the super cute dog in the shop, he literally look like a chunky potato. I definitely recommend this place if you are looking to learn freediving in a beautiful location with great people.
