Sand Island Beach and Dive Resort

Sand Island Beach and Dive Resort is a boutique accommodation on an island with no neighbors or other development around us. We are entirely solar and wind powered, so no generator to listen to but only the sound of waves and birds. We have more than 300 meters of beaches and a beautiful house reef which extends for miles in both directions.

Scuba Diving

Coron is world-renowned for its spectacular scuba diving, offering crystal-clear waters, vibrant coral reefs, and some of the best wreck dives in the world. Beneath the surface, divers can explore hauntingly beautiful Japanese shipwrecks from World War II, dramatic limestone walls, and thriving marine life ranging from reef fish to sea turtles. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced diver, Coron’s warm waters and unforgettable dive sites make it a must-visit destination for underwater adventure.

A wonderful place with beautiful reefs just nearby, perfect for unwinding and relaxing after visiting more crowded areas. The standard of the house was very high, everything was very clean, and the service was like in a 5-star hotel. I 100% recommend this place!
