Catalina Island offers some of the most beautiful waters on the planet. The magnificent giant kelp forests and pristine water around the island continues to draw diver's from all over the world. Whether you are an avid diver or a complete non-diver we have something for everyone.
For those only wanting to hit the water's surface we offer guided snorkeling tours, scenic boat tours and complete snorkel and scuba gear rental packages. In addition to guided scuba tours and introductory scuba dives we also offer a complete selection of classes from beginner to instructor training school. At Dive Catalina our entire staff is dedicated to going out of their way to make your experience unforgetable because we believe that "after all--without YOU there is no business."
Experienced or Not, You Can Try Scuba Diving- It's what we're famous for. OUR INTRODUCTORY DIVES are for those who want to try diving for the first time without the time and investment required for full scuba certification. Our Introductory Dive Specialists will give you a real full-on customized dive experience. We promise you won't feel rushed in and out of the water, and if you have any fears or concerns (no, there's nothing out there that will eat you alive!) our instructors will take the time to listen to you and will customize your introductory dive to fit your specific needs. Making sure that your water experience is safe, enjoyable and unforgettable is our goal.
Most Frequently Asked Question: "When can we do it again?" Requirements: Good health, good comfort level in the water and a good sense of adventure
Certified Divers- Many times certified Scuba Divers need a little extra training or guidance after they spend a period of time away from the ocean. Our guided dives at Casino Point provide certified divers with a NAUI Scuba Instructor who provides guidance in and out of the water. Divers are able to spend time refreshing and perfecting dive skills while enjoying the best diving in Southern California knowing they have an Instructor present to provide assistance. The dive park at Casino Point is home to many species of fish, giant black sea bass, bat rays, octopus and kelp forrest.
We are also proud to be the only organization providing quality Scuba Instruction through the National Association of Underwater Instructors (NAUI) in the City of Avalon. Founded in 1959, NAUI is the world's oldest and most respected Diver Training Certification Agency.
