Where Does the International Dive Excursion Go?
We hope you will join us on a trip to the beautiful Atlantis Resort in Puerto Galera for an exceptional seven-night visit to the center of the world's marine biodiversity—the Verde Island Passage. You'll enjoy world-class valet diving, great accommodations, incredible food, and concierge-level service provided by Atlantis Dive Resorts, the premier dive operation in the Philippines.
Here are some details of this once-in-a-lifetime trip:
The dates are July 13-20 and December 7-14, located in Puerto Galera, Philippines, at the beautiful Atlantis Resort. You'll enjoy world-class VALET diving, great accommodations, top-chef cuisines, and concierge service provided by Atlantis Dive Resorts.
Here is what is included!
· 8 Day/7 Night accommodations, double occupancy (Single occupancy upgrade available)
· three gourmet meals per day at the resort
· Up to 5 world-class valet dives daily, including a night dive. They typically have no more than six divers per boat, and 90% of the dive sites are a short five-minute boat ride away. All surface intervals are at the resort
· Round trip transfers to/from Manila Airport and Atlantis Puerto Galera
It's easy and hassle-free to book with Waikiki Dive Center:
- Call Waikiki Dive Center first with any questions and to see if there is room left!
- Make the per-person payment (i.e., full payment) to the Waikiki Dive Center by phone. We will send you an informational sheet to fill in so everything is organized according to your requests before arrival (e.g., timing, airport pickup, transfers, diving, meal requests, DAN Number, etc.).
- When both above are completed, make your airplane reservations and send those times and dates to the Waikiki Dive Center (and Atlantis). This ensures the appropriate Van/Boat transfer reservations are arranged seamlessly.
- Waikiki Dive Center will then send you helpful tips to enhance your trip (e.g., money exchange, diving recommendations, weather, etc.).
Additional Information
To ensure that your trip will be planned flawlessly, we have a single contact person for all reservations, questions about logistics, flights, timing, airport and hotel pickups, payments, etc.
Here are the specifics:
The trip will be from Saturday to Saturday. At the very latest, you would arrive in Manila on Saturday morning (Manila time; you do "lose" a day when traveling from the US) and depart Manila the evening of the following Saturday. Most everyone arrives a day or two early in Manila to stay at a specific hotel overnight for a relaxing early morning departure to the resort. You can book the City Garden Grand Hotel in Makati online (Expedia). Or I'm Hotel.
Our pickup point to the resort would be Saturday morning from the City Garden Hotel lobby (and the airport). It is a beautiful five-star hotel with all the amenities, including a rooftop pool, restaurants, bars, and hot tub; it is about $70-$100 a night or less.
Whichever airline you choose, your goal is to be in Manila early on Saturday morning of the trip (preferably, come in a day before). Most people dive later that same Saturday at the resort. Upon arrival in Manila, Atlantis will handle your luggage and transfer you (by van and boat; see map) to the resort. The following Saturday, you would depart the resort and have a flight that evening or the next day out of Manila.
