Turtle Bay Dive Resort was built by a family of avid divers for divers and vacationers who want to enjoy the peace and beauty of this island paradise.
The modern villas are set amongst tropical gardens and overlook a private cove with crystal clear waters lapping over the boat jetty.
The resort has 23 rooms that are furnished either in traditional English hand carved furniture or in Filipino furniture. Every room has a ceiling fan and air-conditioning, en-suite bathroom with hot water shower and private balcony with room to relax and enjoy the scented air.
You can take your meals in the large and airy Bay View Restaurant with panoramic views of the bay and mountain range. The restaurant offers Asian fusion dishes Western dishes. Fresh fish is on the menu on most days and a wide selection of local fruit is always available.
After dark enjoy a drink with your friends at the Bay View Bar or at the bayside Dakkit Bar.
Turtle Bay Dive Resort offers dive packages for beginners as well as experienced divers. Most guests choose a two-dives-per-day dive package but further dives (e.g. a night dive) can be added on a pay-per-dive basis.
Turtle Bay operates two outrigger boats, locally known as a bancas, capable of taking groups of up to 20 divers to any of the many dive sites within 30 minutes of the resort. This type of boat is well suited to Philippine waters and it makes for an easy backward roll into the sea. For smaller groups and individuals, a Boston Whaler is used.
A standard package includes two boat entry dives per day and, by request, night dives that are either boat entry or shore dives. There is easy access to the magnificent house reef; just swim out from the end of the boat jetty. Local dive masters can guide you around the reefs and point out the well camouflaged marine life.
There are numerous photo opportunities for underwater photographers, including wide angle and macro photography. Turtle Bay's dive centre has dedicated camera wash tanks and outlets for recharging batteries. You can download your images on the resort's PC and burn them to a CD.
When not diving, you can simply relax at the resort lounge or get a massage by the beach. Research the marine life you saw on your dives with a library of dive books, download your underwater photographs or browse the internet. For those who are a bit more energetic, there are games of pétanque / bocce, pool, table tennis, table top soccer and badminton. Browse the arts and crafts in the resort boutique to find the right souvenir for yourself or your friends. |
