The Galápagos Islands are a scuba diver’s paradise, where every descent feels like stepping into a nature documentary. Located 600 miles off Ecuador’s coast, this remote volcanic archipelago offers some of the most thrilling and biodiverse diving on the planet. From massive schools of hammerhead sharks at Wolf and Darwin Islands to playful sea lions, majestic manta rays, and the elusive mola mola, the Galápagos promises unforgettable underwater encounters.
Diving here isn’t just about marine life — it’s about experiencing a dynamic, ever-changing underwater world shaped by powerful ocean currents. This is one of the few places on Earth where you can dive alongside penguins, marine iguanas, and even whale sharks during the season. Whether you’re an adventurous diver seeking adrenaline-pumping drift dives or a wildlife enthusiast eager to tick off bucket-list encounters, the Galápagos delivers an unparalleled scuba experience.
