Discovery scuba dive: first-time diving experience in the Galápagos, no license needed, with private instructors in calm waters full of marine life.
Discover scuba diving in top dive sites
No license needed — this is your first-time diving experience, guided 1-on-1 by a private instructor who will teach you everything you need to know before entering the water.
The day before the dive, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Puerto Ayora to try on and test the equipment. On dive day, departure is at 7:00 AM, returning around 2:30–3:00 PM.
You'll do one scuba dive and one snorkeling session in calm waters full of marine life. Expect to see white-tip reef sharks, manta rays, eagle rays, sea lions, and many colorful fish. It's also very common to encounter hammerhead sharks in this area — a truly unforgettable experience!
