Overview

Sanho Dive Center is a PADI-affiliated dive center in Coron, Palawan, based at the Pascual Building on Don Pedro Street in Poblacion 3. The center caters to a mix of local and international divers, with multilingual staff covering Korean, English, and Filipino — a practical advantage in a destination that draws significant Korean dive tourism.

The operation includes a rooftop restaurant at the dive center where guests gather before boat departure, and boats depart from a jetty close to the center.

Courses & Training

Sanho runs the PADI recreational course pathway and organizes guided fun dives for certified divers across the Coron wreck and reef field.

Korean-speaking instruction is available — a notable operational detail for groups arriving from Korea who prefer to complete theory and underwater communication in their first language.

Guided Diving & Operations

Dive days include 3 dives covering wrecks, reefs, and lake sites in Coron Bay. Divemasters brief in English, Korean, and Filipino depending on the group. Lunch is served on the boat between dive sessions.

  • Sites reached: Barracuda Lake, Skeleton Wreck, and coral reef sites. Divemasters are experienced in guiding divers of mixed levels on the same trip.
  • Boats: Standard Coron banca. Sturdy construction; space for gear on deck.
  • Equipment: Full rental gear available. All equipment checked and fitted at the center before departure.

Get covered before you dive: DAN Travel Insurance or DiveAssure.

Practical Information

Sanho Dive Center is at the Pascual Building, Don Pedro Street, Poblacion 3, Coron town. Guests check in at the center, and boats depart from a nearby jetty on the waterfront. Check-in starts at 8AM with fruit drinks served while the group assembles.

The center’s central location makes it accessible on foot from most guesthouses in Coron town proper.

Best For

Korean-speaking divers who want instruction and briefings in Korean without arranging a private guide. Divers who prefer a centrally located town center shop with easy access on foot. Mixed-nationality groups where multilingual briefings help keep everyone on the same page before each dive.
