I did a fair amount of research prior to selecting a dive center in Coron. I was tempted by the low prices offered by the local Filipino owned and managed dive centers -- however, I stopped by Rocksteady Dive Center (German owned) late the night before I had planned my first dives of the Coron wrecks. I met with the... More

My girlfriend and I did our open water liscense there. The outfit is relaxed, but very professional. We did one additional day after the course with them wreck diving. We would have done more if time was on our side. We will definately come back and dive again with them. The owners are sound, the instructors professional and the guides... More

I went diving with Rocksteady Dive Center three times this year (Jan/April/June) touring the Philippines and South East Asia. First of all I really enjoyed the small dive groups, sometimes I had the dive master/s all to myself. Secondly the crew on the boats was really nice, excellent food (JanJan) and I always felt safe when diving. The owners are... More

We made a couple of fun wreck dives with Rocksteady. This school is a great choice especially for the more experienced divers who will appreciate the options available, e.g nitrox, deco dives etc. They're well organised and professional We were lucky enough to have a boat and crew entirely to ourselves for our trip out to the wrecks. Dino our... More
