Want to learn scuba diving? Or are you a scuba diving enthusiast who want to venture into new marine haven?
The Diving Shop housed at the family-oriented Ocean Bay Beach Resort now offers scuba diving lessons and scuba diving tours.
Ocean Bay Beach Resort is located at Sitio Guiwanon, barangay Poblacion, Dalaguete town, province of Cebu.
Thomas Kuemmell, one of the owners of the Diving Shop housed at Ocean Bay Beach Resort said that their Diving Shop has a unique service. “At our Diving Shop, we treat customers as friends. We could only show our friends the best service,” he said.
For those waiting to learn scuba diving, Mr. Kuemmell said, “With our qualified instructors, it takes only 3-4 days to get a scuba diving license at our Diving Shop.” He said that Ocean Bay Beach Resort has an indoor swimming pool where eager learners can practice scuba diving.
The sea fronting the resort, Mr. Kuemmell said, is the best place to learn how to scuba dive as the water until about 80 meters from the resort’s shoreline is not deep – only about four meters.
About 80 meters from the shoreline of Ocean Bay Beach Resort also lies a hidden paradise: a more than 1.5 kilometer reef, he said. This more than 1.5 kilometer reef boast of rich marine life full of colorful fishes and corals. He added that it is the safest place to scuba dive as there is no strong current in the area.
Mr. Kuemmell further said their Diving Shop offers scuba diving excursions at night – as marine life at the reef during nighttime is magical. These are marine creatures visible only during nighttime.
Water sports such as banana boat rides, wakeboarding and water skiing are also offered by the Diving Shop housed at Ocean Bay Beach Resort.
Other than the Diving Shop and indoor swimming pool, Ocean Bay Beach Resort’s facilities and amenities include: standard rooms, studio rooms, family houses, bar and restaurant, conference hall, gazebo/pavilion, barbeque areas, kid’s playground, billiards and darts, internet/wifi access, standby generators, and 24-hour security. It has been in operation since 2000.
