Mike is so patient and knowledgeable and will make diving so easy to do from the first Dive. Special Thanks to the whole team Mike, Andrew, Kaela and the Boat staff they treated me like Family.
All the best to this place i will miss them until next year i will be back for sure."

"Boracay Eclipse Dive Center is one of the most professional and accommodating dive centers on the island. If you’re a newbie, don’t hesitate to reach out — they’re incredibly beginner-friendly.
I was with my group of friends, most of whom were first-time divers, together with my two kids (ages 13 and 18) also both first-time divers and we were well taken care of by Mike (who happens to be the owner of the dive center as well) and his team. They were patient, professional, and made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable throughout the dive.
It was truly a blast — an unforgettable experience from start to finish!"

"The rating speaks for itself!!! My son did his junior open water dive here with Mike and Andrew. He was taught and guided exceptionally by these wonderful people, including all the staff at the center. My husband and I also did our dive review here. No regrets! We not only learned a lot but also had a lot of fun!"
