About Mariposa Diving
Scuba Diving is the main attraction on Pandan Island / Philippines. The dive sites around the island vary from shallow coral gardens to deep drop-offs on the north side, ideal for all levels. Our fully equipped SSI dive center offers dive courses of all level from Try Scuba Diving to Master Diver.
Apart from diving around Pandan Island / Philippines, we are no doubt the experts when it comes to organize dive trips to Apo Reef.
Apo Reef can be reached with the big outrigger boats “M/B Karla” or “M/B Rainbow’s End” within 90 minutes. This 40 square kilometer big atoll offers uncountable dive sites and a good chance to see sharks and other pelagics.
Another specialty are the 4 to 5 days safaris to Busuanga (Coron) to dive the Japanese wrecks from WWII.
