Dive Galapagos with Academy Bay Diving

Owner and lead dive master Hugo Masaquiza has been a guide and dive master all over the archipelago, developing an in depth knowledge of all dive and tour sites. All of our dive masters and guides speak both spanish and english, and are extremely knowledgeable about the areas they guide.

Galápagos is our home, and we recognise and feel extremely lucky to live here and be a part of this amazing geological and biological Eden. Therefore we are dedicated to the conservation of our home, and the enchanted islands you wish to visit, and those that need to remain for future generations to come.

Through our diving trips, island tours and packages we hope to educate you about the Galapagos wildlife, helping you to understand what makes it so special, and sharing the rugged beauty that is Galapagos.

Dive Galapagos

Named one of the Seven Underwater Wonders of the World by CEDAM international, the Galapagos waters will make you wish that you could somehow shout out through your regulator to your diving partners all the wonders you see.

Imagine a realm where penguins swim in equatorial seas, no one bats an eye at four-eyed fish, and iguanas are found eating their algae meal submerged in the saltwater. Imagine dolphins leaping about in phosphorescent water and becoming the new friend of a playful sea lion pup. Open your eyes... you are imagining diving the Galapagos.
