Daily Tours
Every day we offer diving day trips for certified divers. We visit a wide variety of sites and offer packages of 2 or 3 dives for:
- individuals
- couples
- groups
- families
- volunteers
We also offer charter trips and the option of discovery scuba for divers who are not certified. Every site we visit is different, but all our trips follow the same basic itinerary:
Day before the trip (in the office):
interview with divemaster about how many dives the diver has done and when was the last time that he/she dove- each diver shows the divemaster his/her certification and signs the release form
- each diver tries on and organizes his/her equipment for the dive
- Payment (please see the rules section about the procedure for last minute cancellations)
Our office is open 7 days a week. Office hours are:
07:30am -12:00pm
15:00pm-20:00pm Mon-Sat
16:30pm-20:00pm Sun
Day of the trip
07:30 am departure Mon-Sat
08:00 am Sun
Depending on the location of the dive site, we usually arrange transport from Puerto Ayora to the Itabaca Channel in taxi (30 to 45 mins). From the Channel, boat navigation time varies between 30min and one hour, 45 minutes.
