Your best diving experience

More than 10 years ago, two brave brothers, Alberto and Jose, decided to leave life on land to follow their true passion: the sea.

Two Spaniards with a long career among corals and compressors, who had already created several dive centers in Spain... one day they built their dream boat and ventured to live in the Philippines.
There they met Tata, a Filipina with a cheerful soul and an islander's heart, who became an essential part of the crew. Together, the three of them set sail and founded Piratas Dive Center, in the crystal clear waters of Alona Beach, Bohol - Panglao, a corner of the world where the ocean speaks and the corals tell stories.

They also share a deep love for the sea! And what they want most is to spread that love to everyone who dares to dive.
Here we don't just teach you to dive...
🎉 We teach you to enjoy.
🌊 To respect.
🐢 To take care of the ocean as if it were our own treasure.

Because in Piratas Dive Center dives are full of laughter, hugs with neoprene, happy bubbles and lessons that stay with you forever. It doesn't matter if you arrive without knowing how to put on a mask... you'll leave as part of the crew!
That's founders. That's our school.
And that's diving with Pirates!
