Technical diving in Dauin: 3 dive centres on TecDiveTools, with agencies, courses taught and a summary of what students say.
No dive centres here offer TDI Cave Sidemount, so that filter was removed.
TecDiveTools lists 3 dive centres teaching technical diving in Dauin, Philippines.
Listings are ordered by how much evidence exists about their technical diving, not by a star rating, with any paid Featured listing shown first and marked as such (how rankings work). 2 of these 3 carry reviews we have read and classified as being about technical or overhead training. The count excludes recreational certifications by name, so a busy resort does not outrank a one-instructor cave operation on the volume of its reef trips. Separately, 1 have at least one instructor whose reviews we have read and summarised — a dive centre carries no synthesis of its own. How we read and count reviews.

TecDiveTools lists 3 dive centres teaching technical diving in Dauin, Philippines. The directory is not a census — it lists the centres we have been able to verify, and grows as more are added.
The Philippines combines some of Asia's most accessible wreck diving with remarkably diverse reefs. Coron holds the fleet of Japanese ships sunk in a single air raid in September 1944, and its deepest, the Irako, lies entirely below 28 m with its keel at about 43 m — a decompression wreck with large holds and an engine room to penetrate. Around them are world-class reefs and marine life — Anilao's macro, Malapascua's thresher sharks, Moalboal's walls — with short travel distances and warm water.
TDI (3) and GUE (1), counted by how many of the 3 dive centres listed in Dauin, Philippines teach each. 2 teach more than one agency. The agency sets the standards and issues the card; the centre sets the price and schedule. Recreational training (SDI) is taught too and is not counted here.
Yes — 1 of the 3 dive centres listed in Dauin, Philippines teach rebreather courses. Most often: TDI Air Diluent CCR (1), TDI Air Diluent CCR Decompression Procedures (1) and TDI Helitrox CCR Decompression Procedures (1). 1 lists the rebreather units it supports, which matters because CCR training is unit-specific.
Diving runs all year, but the typhoon season (roughly June to November) can cancel boat days, especially in the north and around Coron. For most regions the calmest months are roughly December to May.
Around 26–30°C most of the year; a 3 mm wetsuit is usual, with more insulation for long decompression. Thermoclines around Anilao and Malapascua can feel noticeably cooler at depth.
