Stays and activities in siquajor

Hello family,

My friend and I are planning to visit Siquajor for 4-5 nights in July and were interested to know the following based on personal experience:

  1. Places to stay for a budget of less than 3500 Pesos/ night.

  2. Diving classes - we both are non swimmers, so unsure if diving classes are required.

  3. Cost of taking a rented scooter.

  4. Best places for scuba and snorkeling on the island.

  5. Are there guides for the water activities? How do we get in touch with them?

Swimming required to try water activities in Cebu/siquajor?

I know this might sound insane. My friend and I are planning to travel to Cebu and siquajor in July and are thrilled to try out scuba/ snorkeling and free diving. But, both of us have no basic swimming skills. My questions are :

  1. While doing scuba or free diving, would there be a guide?

  2. Do we get oxygen cylinders(small ones) to carry on when doing a free dive?

  3. Is swimming knowledge required to try these?
