I dived here for 1 day with the hope of seeing the majestical manta rays. The dive shop is very nice with lovely outside area and right on the beach. All the equipment were basically new and also maintained to a high standard. The dive shop team were friendly and helpful and very knowledgeable. Mo gave us a great insight into the manta rays before we even started our day. The first dive was on a beautiful reef with stunning variety or corals and fish all looking really healthy and diverse. Our second dive was looking for the mantas and luckily enough we were treated to 3 sightings towards the end of our dive. Patience paid off! The divemaster was excellent friendly and chatty, but always safe and aware of us. He gave good briefings and also pointed out lots of cool creatures underwater. (Sorry I forgot your name)
I would highly recommend this dive shop and will definitely return myself.

Located in the less-visited eastern side of El Nido, Dive Sibaltan offers scuba diving with reef manta rays at cleaning stations discovered only a few years ago in Inmorigue Bay, bordering the towns of El Nido, Linapacan and Taytay. There are also drift dives along well-preserved reefs for those looking for more thrilling experiences.
Getting to Sibaltan is an adventure in itself, taking an hour's scooter drive from El Nido town, passing by beautiful countryside. Dive Sibaltan is tucked along a forested beach at the quiet coastal village. The dive center comprised of small concrete hillside building, open-air storage area, and three bungalows to accommodate overnight guests.
Before our dives, all of us divers were briefed with the proper and ethical way to dive with manta rays. Taking a speedboat, we dove twice at Saan Ka dive site, encountering 3-4 mantas and a green sea turtle. We ended our trip with a picnic lunch at a desolate beach on the southern end of Binulbulan island, just north of the cleaning stations.

Amazing dive center with epic dive sites! In two days of diving we've seen 4 Mantas and 2 sharks, to name only the big animals. They work together with a marine animal conservation project and truly care about the health and protection of the animals and reefs. Anton is a great dive master, Rose was super helpful in planning in advance and all was well organized. Thank you so much!

I don't understand how people could put a note under 5stars.....?
This is one of the best dive center I ever been, they are trustful, helpful, kind, hard workers, I had the best tea of my life there, they sell local products (tumeric tea, coconut soap that I bought 4 years ago and I still have some)!!
Ok you go there to sea mantas, but mantas are wild animals, and this is the only place to see there in Sibaltan!!
And most likely, we had the chance to see them twice with a really good meal, they drop you off a beach and let's eat!!!
Everything was perfect, thanks Dive Sibaltan for your work ! ;)
