The Asri Dive and Leisure Resort sits on Balayan Bay in Anilao, Batangas, widely regarded as the birthplace of scuba diving in the Philippines. From the resort, guests reach more than 30 nearby sites, including Verde Island Passage and Sombrero Island, known for rich macro life and coral walls. PADI instructors run the full training ladder, from a first Discovery Scuba experience through Open Water, Advanced, Rescue and Divemaster, plus specialty courses and Emergency First Response. Day and night boat dives are offered on a per-person or group basis, with boat, tanks, weights and a divemaster included; gear rental and nitrox fills are available separately. The resort pairs this diving base with comfortable rooms and other leisure activities in Anilao.
