Puerto Vallarta Scuba Diving

The spectacular scuba diving spots located throughout the Puerto Vallarta region has attracted scuba diving devotees from all over the planet. What makes scuba diving in Banderas Bay and the nearby Pacific Ocean so appealing to experienced divers? The sheltered coves in the temperate confines of Bahia de Banderas (Banderas Bay) offer superior clarity. Sheltered from high winds and rough seas that can disturb the sea floor and muddy the water, Banderas Bay is a diver’s paradise. But what really distinguishes diving near Puerto Vallarta from other scuba diving destinations are the incredible geological formations. Ancient volcanic activity created a wonderland of undersea sights, including underwater pinnacles, caverns, arches, tunnels, and swim-throughs. Dramatic drop-offs, walls, and underwater plains offer advanced divers some unique underwater geography to explore. There are granite islands that descend far beneath the water’s surface.

The marvelous coral reef environments of the Puerto Vallarta area are home to a teeming assortment of bio-diversity. In addition to a kaleidoscope coral and sponges, you can view hundreds of colorful tropical fish species. Other interesting creatures that dwell in the region include Olive Ridley Sea Turtles, Giant Pacific Manta Rays, Black-tips, Morays, Octopus, and a variety of mollusks and crustaceans.

We supply the latest high-tech scuba diving gear for all participants on our dive trips. All of our equipment is scrupulously maintained by our highly-skilled staff. Our specially-customized dive crafts are outfitted with all the required amenities to supply our divers with the finest possible scuba excursions. On every scuba expedition, you will be guided by a PADI-qualified English-speaking dive master.
