GALAPAGOS ISLAND DIVING
It has been said that if Charles Darwin had dove in the Galapagos he may
have never left. For many divers a trip to Galapagos is the trip of a lifetime and one of the last places in the world where you can dive with
large schools of sharks. The Galapagos Marine Reserve is the second largest in the world and though located directly on the equator it’s
sits at the convergence of cold water currents from Antarctica and the warm waters of the tropics. Here the mixtures of these waters create an
ideal environment where cold and warm water species coexist.
Perfect for intermediate or advanced divers discover the beauty of the
Galapagos during our day dive program – nights are spent comfortably ashore.
