“The Blue Orchid Resort appeals primarily to scuba enthusiasts, with its onsite PADI 5-Star Dive Center and instructors offering courses for all skill levels. Its location, though somewhat remote from Moalboal's main attractions, allows for a quieter experience, especially welcome to families and divers looking for a more secluded base.
