Top 5 dive spots
and areas
The Galapagos has numerous dive spots and areas - and everyone has his favorite. These are the best:
Darwin and Wolf Islands
Gordon Rock and the Plazas
Devil's Crown
Cousin's Rock
Kicker Rock
Reputation
The Galapagos Islands are widely considered one of the finest places on our planet for serious diving.
Needed diving proficiency
level in the Galapagos
Nearly all Galapagos diving spots are recommended only for intermediate to advanced divers because of strong currents, low visibility, thermoclimes, cold water, compression chamber inaccessibility, and sizeable marine creatures (as large as whale sharks).
However, dive operators in Puerto Ayora have outings that take lower-skilled divers to nearby, less-challenging sites.
