I travelled to Bohol over new year 2015 during my first trip to SE Asia (I'm based in Joburg and UK) after a recommendation from a friend. Spindrift is a gem of a place. It's about 10mins inland from the main touristy Alona Beach with the hotels, bars, and dive schools. No problem if you want to go out, or relax on the beach as you've got own scooter to get around at your own pace. But the rest of the time, the Spindrift Reef's team take care of every detail. I was worried about being away from the diving action, but it actually works excellently. I dived twice a day, sometimes three. We set the schedule - location and timing! no having to wait for others in the group to get ready. What a pleasure to dive at your own pace. Everyday when I was driven to the beach, the kit was already on the boat and we were away in minutes. Everytime I surfaced, ice cold towels and refreshing drinks were close at hand as well as a nice hot lunch if we were waiting out for a second dive. The night dives were spectacular. My dive buddy - Manuel - was superb. I also did my Advanced Diver course whilst staying at Spindrift Reefs - once I'd asked for the course, all arrangements were made very smoothly. I won't talk about the diving - if you're looking at Bohol you know how spectacular it is.
The apartment is above the restaurant. A neat little two double-bedroom self catered apartment. Perfect getaway to have an afternoon snooze and/or read up on the course notes for the diving. There's a little kitchenette, but I didn't use it at all as the food downstairs in the restaurant is excellent. A really nice mix of simple local dishes as well as some standard international stuff. It was always nice just relaxing downstairs, chatting with the always pleasant young local staff, before jumping on the scooter to relax at the beach.
These guys have set up something really cool - charming local experience, quite different from the business of Alona beach, but that's just a few minutes away on a scooter or in one of their pick-ups if you want to get more involved. And brilliant value - no way you could get this personalized experience with the quality of service and amount of diving. Great place.

My boyfriend wanted to go diving and came across Piratas, mainly Spanish speaking centre to dive with. Alberto the owner is very hospitable and welcoming.

I had 2 scuba dives in Balicasag Island and 2 freediving sessions with SeaQuest Dive Center. Both were fun and memorable thanks to the super crew who were professional and attentive. SeaQuest manager, Ben Meerhaeghe personally guided and taught me freediving techniques that exponentially upped my game. He made me reach a new depth of 18m with considerable ease. Ben inspires confidence! Highly recommended place for any dive in Bohol.

A perfect place to witness tarsiers.. a sanctuary/ safe haven for these unique indigenous creatures. Staff were knowledgeable about the primate and its behaviours e.g. territorial tendencies. Couldnt get an upclose shot. There is a shop for souvenirs nearby and some cool refreshments during viewing.

We did our Advanced Open Water Course and 3 fun dives in April 2017 at Go Deep and it was really perfect. The equipment is brandnew and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Also the price is fair. The theory and the dives were quite professional and it was also a lot of fun, especially the night dive.
It was a pleasure to Go Deep with Jimmy!

Reachable only by boat, and underwater most of the time, this hidden gem of beach is a fun stopover when on a boating trip. There is not much to do but it is unique and the sometimes local merchants that will cut up and cook the fresh caught shell fish and sea urchins are worth a try.
10. Alona Beach Travel & Tours
The Bohol Country Tour is the must do for all visitors to Bohol as you will get to visit so many of the natural wonders that Bohol is famous for. This of course includes those gorgeous little Tarsiers, the mysteriously formed Chocolate Hills, a floating lunch cruise down the beautiful Laboc River and loads more.
