Dive Travel Information and Group Scuba Diving Trips | Travel is a natural extension of learning to scuba dive. Many people begin diving to experience the beauty they have seen on television, online or in diving books. These customers want to travel even before they are certified. Active local divers are naturally interested in travel and are curious and/or adventurous enough to explore new and exotic locales. Dive travel includes more than underwater exploration; it's also about delving into the sights, sounds, tastes, and even shopping of different cultures. In fact, many active divers begin as active travelers. | Contact Scuba Center to plan your dive trip today!

  Galapagos Islands, Ecuador: Oct 25-Nov 1, 2014
Scientists, naturalists and tourists have explored the Galapagos for decades, but only in the last 20 years it has become a diving destination. Only very recently have divers ventured from the protected bays and inlets to discover true Galapagos diving where the profusion and concentration of marine life is staggering. We have chosen to dive with Buddy Dive, operators of two of the newest, custom designed vessels in the Galapagos.
