Guest Guestbook & Reviews

“Rene was an excellent and experienced instructor who had a great sense of humour and helped me to complete my Open Water and Advanced Open water course in around 5 days of diving. I felt safe and calm in the water despite being my first time and he gave me lots of tips and answered all the questions I had such as how to maintain neutral buoyancy, equalising, how to manage air etc. He took plenty of photos and videos of me in the water as well which I could keep for the amazing memories!”

“I just finished a massive macro haul in Anilao (pouring over 6 GB of photos, including Coleman Shrimp, Blue Ring Octopus, Black Hairy Frogfish, Hairy Frogfish, Flatworms, Nudibranchs including Miamira Alleni, and Shaun the Sheep. If you are a serious shooter, you need Rene Camacho from Anilao diving & photography on your boat. He has 20+ years of local expertise & operates as an independent private guide, working with many top dive resorts.”

“Anilao is a superb destination for macro diving. I’ve been diving with Rene Camacho here for many years. Rene is a consummate professional. He’s spent countless years diving these waters and is very knowledgeable of the area dive sites. His skills and knowledge, especially in photography/video and fish ID, is professionally interesting to me. I’d highly recommend anyone interested in macro photography to visit Anilao and let Rene show you the wonder of what lies beneath its waters. A++”

“Our family was blessed to spend 19 dives with Rene Camacho recently while staying @Arthur's Dive resort. Our photographic experiences were wonderful....his patience, constructive advise, animal spotting, all great & greatly appreciated. Personable, safe, & fun all good! Good boat support staff helped in the experience.”

“We have just 4 days diving with Rene at Anilao. What a fabulous guide! Not only that he is a genuinely nice person and great fun to be with. He is more than happy to help you find specific species or if you just want to be surprised and amazed by what lives in the waters of Anilao he can deliver that too. His hints and tips have improved my photography no end. I have absolutely no hesitation in highly recommending Anilao Diving and Photography.”
