# Fun & Sun Dive & Travel – Daanbantayan reviews > Fun & Sun Dive & Travel – Daanbantayan, dive shop in Cebu. Rated 4.7 out of 5 from 173 customer reviews. Rated 4.7 out of 5 from 173 customer reviews. ### ★★☆☆☆ Alex Aguiar · 2024-07-21 > Staff 5/5 > Price 5/5 > Equipment 1/5 > > We loved our dive guide, Leo, who was patient and went out of his way to find sea horses and make a memorable experience. > The dive master, Shane, was also a very professional and great guy who even turned a potential bad experience with sales personal into a very positive one. Favoring customer service over over short term profit. > Also a very great vibe. In fact on late night walks their shop seems to be the party place with free flowing rum, laughs and guitar playing. > The reason for the low rating is the fact that on the first days dive one regulator had to be replaced as it falsely registered air pressure. No big deal, discovered on land and remedied. > On the second dive however an emergency accent had to be made due to the failure of a second regulator as it was leaking air. It was not life threatening as the leak was quite obvious and discovered at only 7 meters down but still far from ideal. > Dive ships on Malapascua all offer the same dives thus the differentiating factor is price, personnel and equipment. I hate to give a negative review as you form a friendship with your dive shop divers however I would be remiss to not point out key equipment failure that could be life threatening. **Reply from the owner:** > Thanks Alex for your feedback. We have checked with our instructor about this issue of regulators. It appears that there was a valve oring to be changed on the first stage, which was the cause of the leak. There was no emergency ascent made, but a normal ascent to change the equipment for your comfort. It is unfortunate that the leakage was not explained to you for better understanding, as indeed guests doing DSD may get a different feel about leaks. At no point, such leak could become life threatening and this should have been explained to you as to avoid such confusion when commenting on that particular event. ### ★★☆☆☆ Guillermo Bernat · 2024-05-09 > I give this diving center 2 stars. The first two dives were great, we saw thresher sharks and everything was going well. But the third one was a failure: just sand and nothing interesting to see. It was supposed that there was a low chance to see a tiger shark, but considering there was nothing else to see for the whole hour, I think it wasn't worth it. > > What really bothered me was that during the last dive, I entered decompression. I warned the instructor before we got into the water that we had limited bottom time according to the dive plan on my computer, and again when I was only 5 minutes away from entering decompression. He didn't take it seriously at any point, later claiming that he had entered deco many times, that nothing had ever happened to him, and that the brand of my computer was too restrictive. I find it quite serious honestly... Being exposed to too much nitrogen can be dangerous if not handled properly, especially being on a remote island where medical emergencies are virtually non-existent. From my point of view, there was no need to take such risks for a dive that offered nothing special. **Reply from the owner:** > Dear Guillermo, > > We are sorry you did not have a good experience on your dives. > The dive at Monad in the area where the tiger sharks are, you are correct, there is not much to see, except a 25% chance of the tiger shark. I believe we are very honest about this and have a policy, where you can decide on the boat if you want to do this dive, if not, you will not be charged. However most divers want that opportunity to see a tiger shark. > With the decompression, that is very serious and we always ensure that we dive to the most conservative computer in the group and do not do decompression diving. I have spoken to the freelance instructor who was guiding you that day, he has a different version of events, but nevertheless, I have reiterated to him and all our inhouse divemasters and instructors the importance of always diving to the most conservative computer. They are all very clear on this. ### ★★☆☆☆ Ray Lim · 2024-03-30 > BCD leaking and could not hold air for long, clips on the fins are loose. Worst maintained equipment I have ever used. My guide had it worst, even his regulator is leaking > > Threshers and guide are great, didn't return for day 2 though > > Speaking of thresher, I booked 2 shark dives then 2 calangman dives for day 1 and luckily arrived a day earlier as I had been scheduled for calangman dives only which I had to sort out > > The dive day was also hectic, I was a join-in with french kiss divers and oddly they went to Monad first instead of Kimud even though we left early at 5:30 instead of 6:00 > > 2 stars instead of 1 because staff were friendly and tried their best **Reply from the owner:** > Sorry Ray you did not have a good experience with us. > In terms of equipment, we have all gear maintained regularly and any problems fixed quickly. We take spare equipment on the boats as well, as a backup, so any issues do not affect your dive. > I invite any guests looking to dive with us, to ask to look at our equipment room, we will be very happy to show you. I think you will be happy with relatively new BCDs, lots of new wetsuits and regularly serviced regulators. I do not feel this review is a fair reflection of the quality of our dive equipment, but I ask you to be the judge of that. We will be very open to show you and try to give you the best quality and fitting equipment we have. > In terms of dive schedule, we do not offer 2 thresher dives and 2 Kalanggaman dives in one day, so I cannot comment on that. > Going to Monad before Kimud, is not odd. It works to go to Monad either before or after Kimud. Sometimes it is better to go early to try to see the tiger shark at Monad first thing in the morning. For Kimud, you can see the thresher shark throughout the morning. > We partner with other dive centres, especially French Kiss, to share boats, as they have a similar ethos to us. From my experience, they provide very good customer service, are very well organised and that is one of the reasons we like to work with them. ### ★★★★★ xixiao huang · 2023-10-05 > My friend and I did a two days dive trip with fun and sun at the end of Sep 2023 and it was fantastic. Malapascua is a beautiful island and its dive sites were great. What made the trip exceptional was the amazing dive crew. Leo, our dive guide is an experienced and attentive guide who took care of my friend and I well during our dives. He makes the effort to find interesting and small creatures. He also tries to make sure that everyone in the group saw what he has found. Thanks to him, we were able to see many interesting marine animals such as pygmy seahorse, sharks and nudibranches. In between dives, Leo and the crew were constantly making sure that we were well fed and hydrated. We enjoyed ourselves a lot and will definitely recommend anyone who wants to dive in Malapascua to go with them. **Reply from the owner:** > Thank you for your nice review and we are delighted that you had a great time with the team in Malapascua ! Cheers ### ★★★★★ Sufian Bin Morkam · 2019-06-26 > Magnificient view from the balcony.Great staffs. **Reply from the owner:** > Thank you :) Yes pretty nice view indeed! ### ★★★★★ Marij Alberts · 2019-04-01 > Fantastic divemaster Leo! He pays close attention to everyone and makes sure you see everything. He also has excellent timing when diving at the sites; we barely saw any other divers. **Reply from the owner:** > Hi Marij! Glad you enjoyed diving with Leo and Fun & Sun. See you soon :) ### ★★★★★ Suk Hong · 2018-12-15 > People here are so friendly, fun and very helpful~ had an awesome diving experience with them 👍 they accepts MYR for our diving package payment 🙌. > Room is clean and comfortable to stay and their diving equipments condition is good~ recommended dive center to go with. > Great and awesome diving experience with thresher sharks! 🦈 **Reply from the owner:** > thanks Squido! will let the Team > know ### ★★★★★ T M · 2018-10-21 > I recommend this place - great service and staff. > > I actually had some initial admin problems - I thought I was diving one morning but the dive shop scheduled me for the next morning - frustrating when you wake up before dawn for it! BUT I've rated 5 stars because the staff handled it really well. The manager, Tata, apologised immediately, scheduled me in for the next morning, and gave me a discounted rate on all my dives. > > The dive boat was great quality (BYO lunch) and it was two divemasters for four people. The dive shop is clean. I did Gato Island, a night dive and the early morning thresher dive. **Reply from the owner:** > Thank you for your review and glad you enjoyed your time with us in malapascua! > Sorry for the little confusion...and I know how difficult it is to wake up at that time in the morning! But always worth it when you see the 🦈 :) > See you again in one of our dive centers ! ### ★★★★★ Desmond Wong · 2018-06-21 > Fun & Sun is a small Dive Resort with 4 rooms and just perfect for a group of 8. The room are decent with hot shower and cool air conditioning (crucial under the Malapascua sun). The dive operation is great, with 2 big dive boats that is just great for gato island and thresher viewing dives. Dive masters here are world class. Thanks Danilo (Dansoy), Luwil and Mhine (Roots) 💪 **Reply from the owner:** > thanks Desmond will inform the staff of your review ### ★★★★★ 장세희 · 2018-04-05 > At first time I visited, there was big typhoon so intead of diving I learned about Nitrox. (Thanks to Luwil) And this march, I was so happy to dive and see Shark, Mandarin fish, even Blue-ringed Octopus!! > Nice beach, friendly staff, clean room-everything was good. > It was such good time for me and my mom also :) > If the weather is permited, I hope to go back~ **Reply from the owner:** > Glad you enjoyed it :) and see you soon! ### ★★★★★ Leslie Liew · 2018-01-29 > Great place for diving …get to see nudi Branch , thresher Shark ,pygmy Seahorse, black spot shark… > Nice food selection within walking distance **Reply from the owner:** > Thank you Leslie!

Make sure you check equipment when you try on. Got to see the thresher sharks. They charge 1700 all together **Reply from the owner:** > Hi Dylan, the rate included sanctuary fee for the Day not per dive. Glad you saw the sharks.as for the gear, we do have new gear and yes divers should always check their gear before diving. ### ★★★★★ Andrew Chua · 2017-03-02 > (rating only, no text) **Reply from the owner:** > Thanks for your rating!

Even the organization showed that a fantastic team was at work, truly striving to make everything possible. A special shout-out to Lea, the dive center manager, who had everything expertly under control. The rest of the staff were also always friendly and helpful, and we felt well taken care of from the very first minute. > > Alex, our divemaster, provided excellent guidance on the dives. You could tell he knew the dive sites and that it was important to him that everyone had a great dive. The equipment and facilities were top-notch; there was nothing to complain about. > > The location is particularly convenient: it's prime, as the boat can dock right at the dive center. So you don't have to walk any distance with your luggage to the boat, which makes starting the day really relaxed. We were expecting nice dive sites, but they turned out to be absolutely incredible. > > We would love to come back and can highly recommend Fun & Sun Diving to anyone who wants to dive in Malapascua! ### ★★★★★ Francesca GIORGI MONFORT · 2026-07-15 > Great experience doing my advanced PADI with Fun & Sun! > > I accidentally booked for the wrong month (silly me) so I rocked up unannounced, but Mara was very flexible and able to accommodate and Leo my instructor was really fun :) > > Can only recommend ! :) ### ★★★★★ Sophie · 2026-05-22 > I had a fantastic time with Lea and the Fun & Sun Dive Team. I completed my Advanced Open Water Diver course with Lea and couldn't have asked for a better experience! Her warm and friendly personality made every dive a lot of fun. > > I highly recommend this dive school and especially Lea as an instructor. 10/10 ⭐️🫶🤿🦈 ### ★★★★★ Roxanne Baud · 2026-05-10 > We spent two days diving with this club and Alex, it was fantastic! We arrived the day before and they found us a spot on a boat for the next day for shark excursions (note: it's only possible to go without a prior diving certification check if you're an advanced diver with several logged dives). > The club isn't too big, not a factory, it's friendly and well-organized. I highly recommend it! ### ★★★★★ Ivo Andov · 2026-04-26 > Great little dive shop. Not as big or as busy as the big operations on the island, but I liked that. I actually did my advanced with them since I needed it to dive with the Thresher sharks and had a great time doing my cert with Leo. Night diving with him was a joy - he was excellent at finding the smallest things in the darkness. If you want a bigger group and a bigger shop with hype social vibes on the boat, fair to look elsewhere. If you just want a quiet team to dive with, this is it. We usually hopped on another bigger shop’s boat for the ride to the far dive sites. Their gear is also not the newest or fanciest, but their prices are good and they have everything you need plus are just super chill nice people. I ended up staying an extra day and dove the same sites with them again to have more time with the sharks. Super cool experience. Highly recommend. ### ★★★★★ Maya Gossett · 2026-03-10 > We had a fantastic experience with Fun & Sun. We were able to complete the buoyancy training required for diving at Kimud Shoal (mandatory for the open water certification). > > On the morning of our highly anticipated dive, the excursion was canceled while we were on the boat due to bad weather 😭, and it was our last day on the island! > Thanks to a break in the weather and, above all, the invaluable help of Mara and Leo, we were able to join another group later that morning and see thresher sharks! An incredible experience despite the rain! The visibility wasn't perfect, of course, but it made it all the more magical! ### ★★★★★ Jo · 2026-02-28 > A fantastic experience in Malapascua! > > Three great dives. ### ★★★★★ Sotiris !! · 2026-02-14 > I had my Advanced Open Water Diver course there. Staff is very friendly and professional. Mara helped me book online and started the e-Learning before arriving in the island. Vanessa was a cool trainer 😎👍 > Overall great experience, recommended! ### ★★★★★ Georgi Brown · 2026-02-07 > Excellent dive shop, cannot recommend enough! As a group of experienced divers (DM, instructor and 3x AOW) we really rated everything they did. The guides were experienced, safe and super helpful at all times. Whole set up was efficient and well thought out. A particular shout out to Leo (I hope I’m right on name!) who did all the boat briefings as I always think you can tell a lot about a dive shop from the quality of their briefings, and the biggest thank you to Alex, our guide, who has super human underwater vision! Surprisingly cheap in comparison to other shops, but no quality or safety appears to have been sacrificed 🙂 ### ★★★★★ Mark maldonado · 2026-01-23 > It was magical! An unforgettable experience, not only because of the incredible experience of diving with the thresher shark, but also because thanks to Lia, we were able to do all the dives we wanted, even though the weather was bad and she made it possible! Thank you so much for everything, the staff were all fantastic! Alvaro, our instructor and guide, was wonderful, fun, and had a real love for the sea! ### ★★★★★ Adri Mora · 2026-01-23 > I did my Advanced Open Water Diver course with them, and it was one of the best experiences of my life. We had to make a quick stop in Malapascua because bad weather was coming and they were going to close the port, but they organized everything so we could do the dives, see the thresher sharks, and leave before the last boat departed. Without a doubt, one of the best experiences of my life. Great team and instructors. 100% recommended. I hope to return with a bit more time, in which case I will contact them again to dive with them. ### ★★★★★ P.M.A · 2026-01-21 > I completed my advanced course with them. The instructor, Alvaro, was incredible. Besides finishing the course watching the thresher sharks, which was amazing, we did two more dives at Gato Island, including one with a whitetip reef shark. The crew was always helpful, and they make a delicious barbecue. Lea, the center manager, is incredible; she helped us every step of the way! I would definitely go back—the best dive on the island! ### ★★★★★ Alexandre Thouvenin · 2026-01-14 > An amazing experience with Leo, 3 dives I’ll remember for the rest of my life, a huge tiger shark and lots of thresher sharks! Thank you for everything! > And thank you, Lea for the perfect organization and great communication. > See you soon! ### ★★★★★ Shady Barakat · 2025-12-04 > We had an absolute blast diving with fun and sun. Special shout out to Mara and Lea for their amazing cooperation and high quality work in planning our groups trip. Mara was very helpful, responsive, and cooperative during the entire planning from A to Z. And Lea was super engaging and enthusiastic as our guide! Everything was seamless from our first email till our last dive! > > Big thanks to the boat crew and our dive master Kirvy and Nico! They were super fun to dive with and took exceptional care of our safety and the environmental conservation. > > I recommend Fun and Sun to anyone wanting to dive in Malapascua. They have the best prices AND customer experience! Till next time. Thank you Mara, Lea, Kirvy, and Nico. ### ★★★★★ Carmen Sanchez Garcia · 2025-11-21 > 100% Recommended. I can't express my gratitude enough. I had never dived before and wanted to get my Open Water certification. At Fin and Dive, Mara and Lea made everything easy for us, thanks in no small part to Vanessa, our Spanish-speaking instructor. She's an incredible woman with a wealth of experience who instilled calm and confidence in us at all times, adapting to our pace and needs, and even making it fun. > > After the Open Water course, we booked the excursion to see the thresher sharks. As certified divers, enjoying this experience with Vanessa was amazing. THANK YOU!!!! I would do it again every year. ### ★★★★★ Marco K. · 2025-11-12 > We booked with Fun & Sun on a whim the afternoon before diving, and they made everything effortless 🤿 From the first moment, Lea, the shop manager, welcomed us warmly and even handled our gear fitting herself. It was quick, efficient, and genuinely fun, setting the tone for the whole experience. > > Early the next morning we did a triple shark dive - 2× Kimud Shoal and 1× Monad Shoal - and it was magical 🦈 Reggie, our divemaster, guided us to mesmerizing Thresher shark encounters. His calm, competent, and approachable manner made us feel completely safe and well looked after the entire time. > > We had such a blast that we booked a fourth fun dive on the spot that afternoon 🌊 Reggie led us again, this time at Deep Slope, where we even spotted a pair of sea moths among other highlights - an unforgettable bonus to an already perfect day. > > Professional, organized, safety-focused, and genuinely friendly team 🙌 We would 100% recommend Fun & Sun Dive Shop to anyone looking for top-level fun dives on Malapascua ⭐️ ### ★★★★★ oscar long · 2025-10-22 > A top-notch dive center with instructors and staff who do their utmost to ensure you have an unforgettable experience :) > Advanced and open water diving are available.

The staff were not only professional and highly knowledgeable, but also genuinely friendly and passionate about what they do. > > the equipment was in top-notch condition. > The dive sites were absolutely stunning. > We went to capitancillo, which I RECOMMEND A LOT. > > I’ll definitely be coming back for more dives with this amazing team! 🌊🐠 > > Thank you Lea and Leo and all the boat crew 🩷 ### ★★★★★ Michaela B. · 2025-07-19 > A super friendly and welcoming team! We completed the Advanced course and fun dives with Fun&Sun. > > We had a truly unique experience with the thresher sharks and the giant turtle! > > They were very committed to our safety and respect for marine life while diving. > > We had a fantastic time and would love to come back anytime! > > Thank you so much! ### ★★★★★ Martin Tobiaš · 2025-06-06 > Cool experience. I got my DSD and it couldn’t be more professional and exciting. Corals around Malapascue are special and quite close to the shore. People were friendly and helpful. Highly recommended. ### ★★★★★ Jomi Manuputty · 2025-05-07 > Had a great time diving with Fun & Sun! Very well organized trips and good equipment. Breakfast and snacks including the banana bread and mangoes were great. Very well done and would recommend to everyone to dive with them! ### ★★★★★ Yu Lin · 2025-04-18 > (rating only, no text) ### ★★★★★ Steven Lrch · 2025-04-06 > We did 6 dives with Fun and Sun and everything went perfectly! > From the warm welcome to the payment, everything was smooth and well-organized. > > We did three dives at Gato Island and three more at Kimud and Monad Shoal. > > Our dive guides, Lea and Leo, were fantastic: attentive during the dives without being intrusive.

All DM were well experienced and very nice. ### ★★★★☆ Lander Van Hoye · 2025-02-14 > (rating only, no text) ### ★★★★★ Leonie Zimmermann · 2025-02-06 > I had an excellent experience diving with Fun & sun for two days. The managers, divemasters, boat crew etc. are very caring and try to give you the best possible experience up to your interest and skills. I did 3 dives at Gato island with Thomas, who is as interested in macro stuff as me, and it was some of the best and chill dives I ever did. The day after I went to see the sharks and were really happy to be put in a group of same skillset, so the dives ended up being super awesome aswell! Our guide Caro was very friendly and did a great job! > > I highly recommend diving here and telling the receptionist your interests so they can put together a great trip for you. > > Thank you very much to the whole team! ### ★★★★★ Kevin Devilee · 2025-01-18 > A really great dive center. Good and helpful staff in the shop, and the people on board are all incredibly friendly too. We dived with Divemaster Leo, and we really enjoyed it. Leo is very friendly and helpful and makes sure you have a good view of everything. He even invited us for a drink and a chat afterwards. In short, definitely recommended! ### ★★★★★ nicola newlove · 2025-01-18 > I came to Malapscua island to dive. These guys were incredibly helpful and provided transport as I was short on time. I did a total of 9 dives. All very different. I loved my experience. Professional team with great equipment. Saw some incredible sea life. Would highly recommend. Thanks to you all so much. ### ★★★★★ Lucia Michelini Sola · 2025-01-07 > I'm absolutely thrilled!! > I did the Advanced Open Water course with them, and they made it incredibly easy. They gave me every possible option to fit it into the schedule I had. > I took the course with Yeray in Spanish. He's super professional, knows a ton, and explains everything clearly. Underwater, he's like one of the fish; he has amazing eyesight and goes and shows you everything. I felt very safe with him and even more eager to learn. > I definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to learn a lot. ### ★★★★★ Sophia Schäuble · 2025-01-05 > We did our Advanced OWD here and couldn’t be happier. 👌🏼 > Our teacher Egoitz was amazing! He helped us every time we struggled with something with so much patience. He’s a great and professional teacher and an incredible diver!

Had a great and safe time! :) in the course you also see the treasure sharks! 🦈🦈 ### ★★★★★ Lin Richard · 2024-12-28 > I spent 4 days diving with this dive shop and everything was perfect. Yeray, the manager of the shop, has always been so patient with me and my queries and requests. Alex, my DM and amigo for all my dives during these four days (except one night dive with Yeray), has always been passionate, showing me everything he knows about the dive sites. I will definitely dive with them again! ### ★★★★★ Mohamed Ahmed · 2024-12-23 > Friendly staff and have the best espresso in the island ### ★★★★★ Michèle Josuran · 2024-12-18 > Very friendly staff.

Booked a 3 thresher shark fun dive package & so happy with it - from the email communication with Yeray prior, to the day itself & the price. My dive master Leo was super knowledgeable, respectful of the environment, safe & friendly & the whole team was super professional. Highly recommend them. ### ★★★★★ Brian Ferris · 2024-11-27 > We had a phenomenal week with Fun and Sun. As advanced divers, everything was amazing. > I reached out to several dive centers before coming. I chose Fun & Sun because Joy was the most responsive and forthcoming with information. > All the dives were excellent. The gear was great. Alex is the best guide. > > I highly recommend Fun & Sun > > The beds are also very soft and comfortable ### ★★★★★ Manuel Frechi · 2024-11-11 > More unassuming and quieter than some of their competitors in the area, but they more than make up for it with professionalism and customer care. They make you feel very safe, relaxed, and like family. The boat crew is fantastic. The equipment is good and works perfectly; we didn't have any problems. Special mention to our guide, Egoitz, who explains everything perfectly, prioritizing safety. We did miss the complimentary coffee or tea served on the premises. If we return to Malapascua, we would dive with them again without hesitation. ### ★★★★★ Marjorie Bueno · 2024-11-02 > A fantastic dive center where we received a very warm welcome from Jo and the whole team. > Unforgettable dives with thresher sharks, seahorses, and other wonders of the Philippine waters. > Thank you to the entire team! ### ★★★★★ Alberto Ojer Blasi · 2024-10-22 > Excellent dive center! Professionalism, service, and great treatment. Special mention goes to instructor Egoitz for his respect for his profession and the marine environment. He always seeks out the best and least crowded dive sites, making you feel fantastic. The center's accommodation is incredible, right on the beachfront, with spacious and very comfortable rooms. Thank you all! ### ★★★★★ Ruslan Sotnikov · 2024-10-16 > Just an amazing place and an amazing team! Took my OW course with them and it was a really nice experience. The whole team made me feel comfortable and helped me a lot. Special thanks to Shane, Matt and Naama, my diving instructors. Everything went smooth, even when we had some unexpected situations that were rapidly solved. > > PD: It was tricky, but I was able to reach Siquijor :) ### ★★★★★ Yoav Hayut · 2024-09-22 > Great place to dive! Very friendly people, good prices and great instructors ### ★★★★★ Adem’s Food Reviews · 2024-09-03 > Did my advanced open water with Adam and he was really great! Learned so much from the course. It’s also really good value. The dives were beyond amazing. Would recommend for sure! ### ★★★★★ maria palacios · 2024-08-30 > Fun&Sun was recommended to us for our open water course, and we couldn't have chosen a better center. Egoitz, our instructor, is a true professional. He inspired confidence and peace of mind from the very first moment. I loved his phrase: "I want you to learn to dive, not just leave with a certificate that says you can dive." It's clear he's passionate about what he does, and that passion is contagious. > > Seeing a thresher shark in person was one of the most incredible experiences of our lives. > > If I had to find a fault, some of the equipment is worn and needs replacing. ### ★★★★★ Toni Campuzano · 2024-08-29 > We took the AOW course with Egoitz, a fantastic instructor and a very approachable person. His professionalism is outstanding. We were delighted to have had the opportunity to take this course with him. ### ★★★★★ Bea Kristine De Los Santos · 2024-08-26 > Newbie diver here.

With some anxiety about doing something for the very first time, his calm demeanor and supportive approach really helped to alleviate my fears. > If you’re wondering whether scuba diving is for you or not, come try it at Fun&Sun where they truly care about their customers and go above and beyond to ensure a positive and unforgettable experience. > I’m already looking forward to my next dive with them—next year! ### ★★★★★ Aketza H · 2024-08-22 > I went to see the thresher sharks and ended up spending the whole week diving with them. The staff is very friendly and helpful, always ready to help. The guides are exceptional: Leo, Alex, and Egoitz are all fantastic and will find anything you ask for. Among other things, I came away with a beautiful and varied collection of over 40 nudibranchs! Thank you so much, it was amazing. ### ★★★★★ Adrián Flores Ruiz · 2024-08-10 > Incredible experience and 100% recommended! My instructor, Ego, with whom I did the Open Water course and the shark dives, is absolutely fantastic. Definitely an experience to enjoy if you're in Malapascua! ### ★★★★★ Rafael Castro · 2024-08-02 > (rating only, no text) ### ★★★★★ Baptiste Le Flem · 2024-08-02 > (rating only, no text) ### ★★★★★ Adam Brown · 2024-07-30 > Did my Nitrox course with Shane and couldn’t be happier. Shane was professional but approachable and friendly. It’s clear he really knows what he’s talking about and I felt completely safe and well taken care of the entire time. They took me to see the threshers as part of the training and it was amazing. Shane even went out of his way to try and get some footage of me with the sharks. Very wholesome guy. > > After the course I went on 3 adventure dives to Gato Island the next day with one of the shops dive masters and it was also a great experience. Early on my BDC was leaking a bit, probably due to an o-ring, and it was promptly switched out for a spare. Great experience overall and I highly recommend the shop. ### ★★★★★ Borja Dañobeitia · 2024-07-28 > Top-notch diving on Malapascua Island with Fun and Sun, who offer friendly and professional service. Excellent equipment and facilities right on the beach, at a very competitive price. We took advantage of our time on the island to get our Advanced Open Water certification with their instructor Egoitz, a fantastic instructor both in and out of the water. He helped us improve our diving and enjoy the thresher sharks and everything else we saw. Unforgettable. ### ★★★★★ חן לואיס · 2024-07-23 > (rating only, no text) ### ★★★★★ Andrea García · 2024-07-08 > Diving in Malapascua was incredible, and even more so with Ego as our instructor! A great professional and person. ### ★★★★★ emilce jurado · 2024-06-18 > I had an amazing experience taking scuba diving lessons at Fun and Sun Dive on Malapascua Island. My instructor, Ego, was exceptionally kind and responsible. From day one, I felt safe and well-guided thanks to his professionalism and in-depth knowledge of diving. > > Ego made sure I learned all the necessary techniques. His patience and attention to detail truly made all the difference, especially for someone like me who was new to diving. > > I highly recommend Fun and Sun and, in particular, Ego as an instructor. Thank you for an unforgettable experience! ### ★★★★★ kunal sachdeva · 2024-06-13 > I had an exceptional experience at fun and sun dive center! > Booking with them was a piece of cake, and the owner JC took care of our minutest details and requirements. > The staff were incredibly helpful and ensured we felt welcome from the moment we arrived. All the equipment and boats were very well maintained. > The boat crew are always forthcoming, and are very helpful, something not so common nowadays. > The guides were very knowledgeable and guided us through breathtaking underwater dives. I highly recommend them for an unforgettable diving experience! ### ★★★★★ Claire Ow · 2024-05-27 > TLDR: 10/10 would come here to dive again but would consider staying at another accommodation > > Fun & Sun and malapascua is definitely one of the most memorable places my friend and I have dived at. Although the shop is small, the equipment is well maintained, the boat is clean, the dive shop crew are super chill and flexible with last minute changes. > > We had a few DMs over the trip like Xavier, Nico (& JB too!). All the DMs have very sharp eyes and showed us lots of cool macro wildlife. They were always looking out for our safety considering that my friend and I are relatively inexperienced divers, and even went above and beyond to give us tips on how to improve our finning/buoyancy techniques during safety stops. I also really appreciated that the dive crew is environmentally conscious, e.g generally respectful of the wildlife and Nico even helped me pick up trash during the dives when I couldn't reach some hahahaha > > As for accommodations, we stayed in one of the Fun & Sun rooms for 2 days before moving over to Legend Hotel next door. The Fun & Sun room itself was clean and true to pictures. There were some problems with the shower pressure not working well, but the management was quick to come by and rectify that. However, do note that the dive shop closes in the evening and there is no on-site management for the accommodations at night, so any problems at night will require you to make a few calls here and there to the team. Also, it seemed like we were the only guests for those 2 days that we stayed, so the whole place would often be really quiet and pitch black at night when we came back after dinner. As 2 females it felt a bit unsafe so we eventually made the switch to move to Legend Hotel next door. Nevertheless, the team at Fun & Sun helped us settle the logistics of moving and payment with Legend, so that would be a plus point for them :) > > Overall had a really great time with the crew and the thresher sharks, hope to see you guys again soon!! ### ★★★★★ Raul Sanchez · 2024-05-21 > Great experience with fun & sun. Thanks to Adam, Egoitz and Nico. I had great experience with them. 100% recommended ### ★★★★★ Andrea Riaño Pérez · 2024-05-20 > We did two dives to see the thresher shark with Adam, who was very attentive to us two friends who were also complete beginners. He made us feel very safe and helped us enjoy ourselves to the fullest. A great experience, good equipment, a pleasant atmosphere, and breakfast was included between dives. Thank you so much, Adam, for the experience! ### ★★★★★ Maria Victoria Demo · 2024-05-19 > It was so safe and good! I love it and recomend it! > There is so many options in malapascua but this guys have good equipment and good divemaster and instructors > 10 of 10! ### ★★★★★ Cassie Niu · 2024-05-17 > Great dive shop with fun and experienced instructors/divemasters! ### ★★★★★ stine · 2024-05-17 > having fun with all the dms in Mahinhin boat > all the dms & boat man are friendly and helpful and it was fun most of the time! > #threshershark! ### ★★★★★ Pol Prats · 2024-05-08 > Words fail me after these last 3 days with Fun and Sun! > > Adam and Claire, thank you for helping us with everything and guiding us during these very special dives! > > Egoitz, you're amazing! There are few like him, truly! Such passion and professionalism. Love for the sea, ocean conservation, and respect. > > I haven't even left yet and I already want to go back! > > See you soon 😎 ### ★★★★★ men brenda · 2024-05-04 > We had our refresh lesson with Leo and 5 FDs with Alex, both are very good. Leo is very polite and professional, also very gentle, we’re so happy to have him as our refresh instructor. During the FD Alex took good care of us. All in all, a good dive center to recommend ### ★★★★★ María González Domínguez · 2024-04-26 > I did my AOW with them, and it was the right choice. > My Dive Master / instructor was Leo, and he was amazing!! He was very polite, friendly, and really nice. He was always making sure that I was fine and that I saw as much as we could. He brought to the boat such a cool vibe, always being nice and joking with everyone. Everyone on the boat loved it! It was really cool to dive with him because it felt so natural and peaceful. I never felt uncomfortable or rushed. Thanks to his knowledge around the dive sites, we had a dive that it was just the two of us where we could see thresher sharks and so much marine life! He made it so easy and enjoyable! I can’t recommend him enough. Enjoyed every single second of the course and the dives with him. > Thank you Leo!!! ### ★★★★★ Valentina Carracedo · 2024-04-18 > My partner and I took the Advanced Open Water course with Irene, and it was an incredible experience! Irene is very professional, patient, and passionate about diving 🤩🤩. She's one of the best instructors I know! > The dive center is small but has everything you need for a fun and safe dive. > Thanks to Irene, we saw many thresher sharks and had one of the most amazing diving experiences of our lives!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩 ### ★★★★★ Diego S. · 2024-04-11 > 100% recommended if you want to dive in Malapascua. I got my Advanced Open Water Diver certification with them; the prices are good and the service is unbeatable. The instructor, Adam, was super attentive throughout the entire process, both above and below the water. I had my doubts about whether or not to dive, and thanks to him, I was able to do it with complete peace of mind and confidence. I couldn't be more grateful. I left there having seen a thresher shark just over 2 meters away and many other incredible species. Plus, the atmosphere on the boat is great, and the breakfasts with fruit are delicious! ### ★★★★★ CIara W · 2024-04-08 > Everyday is the best day here. > Spent a week here and had the best time. Excellent dive team. ### ★★★★★ Carlota Teixido · 2024-03-31 > Hands-down the best diving school in Malapascua.🤩🐠🐟 > > Friendly, welcoming and highly-trained team of professionals, both at diving and teaching anyone that walks in. > > I cannot begin to express my love for this place… I took my Open Water Diving course with Irene and she made sure I had the safest most fun time of my life. > > Irene took me under her wing and devoted her every minute of the course to make sure I had every need covered at ALL times, both over and under the water, making me feel reassured and safe even at 18m below water level with a shark close up to my face. > > I had little to none experience with diving when I first walked through the doors of Fun&Sun to get my OW training, but once I got there, i loved it so much I even joined the Specialty Shark Dive🦈🤿. > > I plan to come back to the exact same diving school when I take my Advanced Course in the future.👍🏼 > > Also the breakfast on the boat at sun dawn during the shark expedition with the whole crew was incredible 👌🏼🌅 > > I hope you like it as much as I did! 🥰 ### ★★★★★ Ruud Van Den Eijnden · 2024-03-30 > Amazing diving school. They put in the effort to find a diving experience that matches you skill level and interest. Our instructor Adam took the time to ensure we we're all ready and well prepared for our dive. A great experience! ### ★★★★★ Carmen medina padilla · 2024-03-08 > I was lucky enough to get my Advanced certification here; the instructor, Irene, was wonderful. She's a teacher with great technique, who makes you feel safe and from whom you really learn… look her up because she's really, really good! > The prices are reasonable compared to other schools in the area. It's true that the equipment is quite worn and will need replacing soon. ### ★★★★★ Aoiffe Gray · 2024-03-06 > Dive here!! > I completed my AOWD with fun and sun dive shop with the lovely Leo, and can’t recommend enough. > Leo is a wonderful local instructor and really knows the waters around Malapascua. He was very patient helping me to master my buoyancy and underwater navigation. He also spent an evening with me after our fish ID dive flicking through fish ID books, talking about life (over and underwater), and the giant worm we saw on our night dive, which as Leo pointed out, was actually a sea cucumber. > My first deep dive on the course was also my first shark dive, in Monad Shoal. A plunge into a whole new world, surround by the beautiful thresher shark on their way to get scrubbed up by the little cleaner fish. Back on the boat I was lucky enough to be daydreaming in the right direction, where a thresher then jumped out of the water right in front of my eyes! 🦈 > Adam the manager, Joy the receptionist, and all of the boat crew were also always so friendly and helpful. Thank you all so much! ### ★★★★★ Rio Sancho Gracia · 2024-03-04 > Open Water Advanced Course 🤿🦈🐠 > > My instructor, Irene, was incredibly professional from the very beginning, explaining the course content and how we would approach it in a simple, fun, and highly professional manner. > > This is especially important in Southeast Asia, as I've sometimes found that professionalism takes a backseat and they focus more on the "business." > The equipment provided for the course was in excellent condition, and I didn't encounter any problems during the five dives we did together. > I'd also like to thank Adam for his kindness during our initial contact with the center, making an effort with his Spanish and providing a clear explanation of the dive sites we could visit in Malapascua. > Once in the water, after Irene's briefings and course explanations, everything was very straightforward, and you feel supported and safe at all times. A great center to get certified or do fun dives, with a great professional like Irene who makes it a memorable experience during your time in the Philippines. ### ★★★★★ Christian Lázaro Andrés · 2024-02-28 > Highly recommended. The staff is very friendly, they explain everything very well, and the materials are high quality. > If you go soon, the experience with Marc and Amaia is a 10/10. ### ★★★★★ Fabio Anceschi · 2024-02-19 > My friend and I did the PADI Advanced Course in January 24 with and it was absolutely amazing! We have seen the Tresher Sharks, went to Gapo Island and had a truly incredible experience. We learned a lot from Adam and always felt very safe and comfortable. 100% would recommend! ### ★★★★★ Julio Jose Lopez Castillo · 2024-02-19 > The best dive center in Malapascua, with Spanish-speaking instructors. We completed the Advanced Open Water course during our time on the island and were absolutely delighted with the experience and the service we received from Irene, our instructor, and the rest of the team. If we return, we wouldn't hesitate to dive with them again. Thank you, and keep up your passion for teaching the underwater world so well. ### ★★★★★ KB · 2024-02-17 > I spent a week diving with Fun and Sun Malapascua. The room was clean and comfortable. Perfect location on Bounty beach. Good dive operations, experienced dive guides. Nice thoughtful team and boat crew. I always felt well taken care of. Several close encounters with the thresher sharks….an unforgettable experience. Macro photo opportunities are pretty good too. ### ★★★★★ Thomas Lacombe · 2024-02-13 > This dive center was recommended to me, and it was a fantastic experience! I highly recommend it. It's a small team, so there aren't many of us on the boat, and it's never more than two of us with the instructor, which is a welcome change from other large dive centers. And underwater, we also avoid the crowds of other divers, getting away from it all and diving alone with the famous thresher sharks! > Thanks again so much! ### ★★★★★ Sergi de Melero López · 2024-02-10 > I got my Open Water course with them. It was so easy to learn and understand everything with Irene, and it was in Spanish too! She was wonderful, patient, and calm, and we had a fantastic time! > > We also had the shark dive, which is a must-do. I wasn't sure if I wanted to dive, but now I'd love to be underwater! Thanks also to Adam, who helped and advised us throughout the course. > > Everyone I know is absolutely thrilled! ### ★★★★★ umberto scudo · 2024-02-09 > I've been to this dive shop and had a great time!! I highly recommend it. The manager was very kind and offered me coffee and water several times, and even let me pay by credit card. The dive instructor, IRENE, was amazing, the best ever!!!! She always made me feel at ease and guided me to discover these wonderful creatures called thresher sharks!! Pure excitement. The second dive instructor is ADAM and he's brilliant!! We did a wonderful dive in the northern part of the island called Quilliano: cuttlefish, lionfish, and beautiful corals, as well as seahorses!! > Thanks guys, I highly recommend this shop, you won't regret it!!! ### ★★★★★ Carlota · 2024-02-09 > I did my Open Water course and thresher shark diving at this place, with Irene as my instructor, and I couldn't be happier! All the staff there are lovely, and Irene was the best instructor possible—always smiling, patient, and her explanations were top-notch. Great price. Thanks, team! ### ★★★★★ Fran Soto González · 2024-02-08 > It's a small dive center, but the service is excellent. The staff are lovely.

If you looking for a fun dive or increase your diving knowledge that's the place!! ### ★★★★★ Nolwenn Drean · 2024-02-04 > What an experience ! As a beginner (only 6 dives and open water) Adam took me with him for a moment I will never forget ! He gave me confidence, gave lots of advice and answered all my questions. So thank you to Adam and the whole team for these two dives, meeting the thresher sharks! ### ★★★★★ scarlett van wijlick · 2024-02-02 > Did some fun dives with Irene. She is an amazing dive master and super enthusiastic. Really loved it!! ### ★★★★☆ Al unterwegs · 2024-01-11 > Malapascua was really busy before 2020. It's high season now, but it's practically empty. Prices are fair. Unfortunately, the diving equipment (like with many dive operators) is getting old. However, they are very attentive; as soon as something isn't quite right, it's replaced. Due to the low demand, it will probably be difficult for them to buy new equipment. > > Leo and his team are very helpful and accommodate diving requests whenever possible. Thank you for everything. We had six dives. ### ★★★★★ Johannes Chevalier · 2023-12-17 > I completed my PADI certification here (early December 2023) and it was fantastic!

Diving sites are really beautiful, staff are friendly as well.. I would love to comeback here again for the third time hehe. ### ★★★★★ Lim Fang Yi · 2023-07-03 > We stayed for 5 days and dived for 3 days with Fun and Sun in July 2023 and it was a great experience overall! > Room - modest, but clean (save for some sand which is inevitable) and comfortable. Aircon and water heater worked well. > Dives - took our advanced open water with Marta and she was a great instructor! Very attentive to us throughout all our dives. The dive sites were fantastic and we managed to see thresher sharks, white tip sharks, black tip sharks, and many more on our dives. > Service - the overall service was very well coordinated. We left on time for every dive, breakfast prepared, and with all our equipment already loaded on the boat. The crew were very attentive, always helping us to set up for each dive and offering water/tea/coffee once we returned. The boat and airport transfers arranged by them were very punctual as well. > Would 100% recommend Fun and Sun for anyone looking to dive in Malapascua! ### ★★★★★ Alejandro Crespo Sánchez · 2023-07-02 > I’ve booked my fun dives with Fun & Sun both times I’ve been in Malapascua, and I could not have had a better experience (that’s why I came back 😊). > > Kimud shoal is a must to see the Thresher sharks, I liked Kalanggaman a bit better than Gato island, but both are astonishing. Also done 3 fun dives in Monad shoal and did not see the tiger shark so it was not really worth it in the end. > > Quite affordable compared to other dive shops in the area, and very very friendly and professional staff. > > Can’t do nothing but thank them for making my diving so enjoyable! ### ★★★★★ Mathilde PORCHY · 2022-11-25 > I dived with sun fun and dive with 3 of my friends, one of the best diving exeprience I’ve had! > The staff is amazingly friendly and caring, very passionate about what they do also.

Also thanks to Leo and Luwil for being excellent diving guides! We enjoyed your company very much! ### ★★★★★ Jordi Sincasa · 2022-04-23 > We have had an awesome experience with Fun&Sun. We saw so many thrasher sharks in the moring and amazing corals in the afternoon. They are not the biggest school but for sure the best one! Good price and wonderful team.

Not surprising that it didn't disappoint. We were 4 divers of different skill levels and 1 of us was taking photos. The DMs took good care of all of us and also tried to look for creatures for us to see and take photos. All the staff were friendly and helpful although they were constantly busy. > > Mind you that some dive sites require us to have pack lunch. And the dive centre might forget to remind divers. Please do check carefully the time of setting off and returning and ask the dive centre. ### ★★★★☆ Ruben Cabardo · 2018-06-13 > (rating only, no text) ### ★★★★☆ Ana Duchiron · 2018-06-08 > So friendly people there !!! 😍 ### ★★★★★ Jirka Šofka · 2018-06-06 > Loved them.
