    What You'll Do

    Scuba diving at Magdalena Island is one of the most gratifying experiences in the world. Whether it’s driving around a sunken Spanish ship or an old submarine from the First World War or at Tetis, a volcanic zone with great pelagic life around, you will have a blast. Octopuses, lobsters, turtles, sea lions, big pelagics such as mola, sharks, marlins, and more will be joining your dive and you will get to know every inch of the island, even underwater.

    Discover what’s underneath this magical place and do it with a certified and experienced guide that will show you everything you need to know. You’ll spend 2 full days scuba diving and the rest of the time will be filled with additional activities chosen by your trip leader.

    The diving’s spot will be chosen with the guide, depending on the distance and weather that day. You will use 2 or 3 tanks max per day.
