BOHOL
Panglao Freediving Adventures
Panglao Freediving Adventures is a trusted freediving school based in Panglao, Bohol offering beginner-friendly courses and guided experiences in some of the Philippines’ most enchanting dive sites. The atmosphere here feels warm and reassuring from the moment you arrive, with a team that takes time to explain each step, answer questions, and ensure every diver feels comfortable in the water. Safety, proper technique, and confidence-building are clearly at the heart of their teaching approach.
What truly sets this school apart is the care woven into the entire experience. Supportive coaches guide beginners patiently, while skilled underwater videographers capture moments with an artistic and thoughtful eye, allowing divers to relive their first descents long after the session ends. Led by the friendly and hands-on owner, Miss Annie, Panglao Freediving Adventures feels personal, welcoming, and well-organized, making it an excellent choice for first-time freedivers who want to learn at a relaxed pace while enjoying the clear waters and laid-back island rhythm of Bohol.

LIMASAWA
Piranha Freedivers
Piranha Freedivers is a Limasawa-based freediving school co-founded by a team of experienced and certified freedivers from Cebu, Leyte, and other parts of the Visayas. During my visit, I personally worked with Wandong, Ron, Paula, and Francis, who each brought a strong mix of technical knowledge, local familiarity, and genuine love for the water. The school also offers freediving sessions in Padre Burgos, Southern Leyte, giving students and visiting divers more opportunities to explore the region’s underwater beauty.
What stood out to me most about Piranha Freedivers is their supportive, relaxed, and fun approach to teaching. Instead of making the experience feel intimidating or overly technical, they create an environment where learning feels natural – almost like you’re simply playing in the water while building real freediving skills along the way. For beginners and returning divers, that kind of atmosphere makes a big difference in confidence, comfort, and overall enjoyment.
