Dive Lab

Dive Lab has called Moalboal home since August 2022, bringing 15 years of PADI-only scuba training to one of the Philippines' most beloved diving destinations. As a PADI 5-Star Dive Resort with a permanent PADI course director and three PADI instructors on staff, this waterfront centre has built its reputation on serious, structured education in a genuinely beautiful stretch of sea.

Courses and dive sites

Training runs the full ladder — from first-time experience dives and Open Water through to instructor development — alongside PADI Freediving, Snorkelling and EFR First Aid. Divers explore Moalboal's celebrated sites, including the Magic Island House Reef, Pescador South, the famous Sardine Ball, Tongo Point Marine Sanctuary, Tuble Marine Sanctuary and Talisay, where turtles, sharks, whales and ocean fish are all part of the underwater cast.

With a house reef on its doorstep, air conditioning, free Wi-Fi, a retail shop, Nitrox and a full range of rental gear, Dive Lab suits everyone from curious beginners to aspiring instructors. Staff speak English and Korean.
