P. C. Divers

Set on the waterfront at Pacific Cebu Resort in Mactan, Philippines, P. C. Divers has been welcoming divers since 1994. As a PADI 5 Star IDC Resort with seven PADI Instructors and instruction available in English and Japanese, it's a place built for learning — from a first breath underwater to professional-level training.

Courses and dive sites

Newcomers can take the plunge with PADI Discover Scuba Diving, while the full PADI Open Water Diver Course, Advanced Open Water Diver, Rescue Diver and Emergency First Response build skills step by step. Certified divers can join a morning fun dive in Mactan or a morning trip out to Hilutungan Island. An onsite training pool, classroom and house reef keep everything close at hand.

The surrounding waters offer plenty to explore, including the Tambuli Aeroplane Wreck, 7 Seas Reef, and the marine sanctuaries at Nalusuan, Hilutungan, Talima and Shangri-La. With sharks, turtles, eels and a wealth of ocean fish among the marine life, it suits both first-timers and divers looking to log more underwater time.
