Holiday insurance to include scuba diving

Can anyone advice? The comparison sites only seem to include winter sports. It’s just a holiday to Philippines but I will be learning to scuba dive for the 2 weeks I’m there.

  • I am a PADI advanced diver and any holiday insurance I've ever had has always included Scuba diving down to 30 metres as standard.  You need to choose the best policy to suit your needs and then check the policy by looking at the website of the company before purchasing.

    As above, many include up to 30 metres down. If you check the policy before buying you will be able to check.

  • A lot of insurances do cover fun diving down to 30m OW is down to 18m however there are some exclusion, I have Alpha long term travel insurance, they do cover down to 30m, I spent a month diving in the Philippians last March.  Have a look at DAN insurance they do dive specific as well as general travel insurance. 

    Where are you diving? I can give recommendations if you are looking :-)
