The first dive site is on the east side of Catalina Island, with depths ranging from 5 meters (16 feet) to over 40 meters (131 feet), based on your skill level. Dive experts assist during the session, and lifejackets are available if needed.

Underwater, explore ‘The Wall,’ observing vase sponges, sea fan coral, octopus, porcupine fish, scorpion fish, southern stingray, blue parrotfish, lionfish, seahorses, and moray eels. After approximately one hour, the second dive site, known as the ‘Aquarium,’ offers depths from 8 meters (26 feet) to over 12 meters (39 feet) with excellent visibility. Look for vase sponge, tube worm, spiny lobster, sand star, frogfish, trumpet fish, barracuda, mackerel, tiger moray eel, and more.
