Source review excerpts
Thanks to this specialized dive agency, we spent over four intense weeks in the Galápagos Islands, diving almost every day and enjoying a complete and extraordinary experience. The frequency of our trips allowed us to observe an impressive variety of marine species, many of which are among the archipelago's most iconic. Among the most spectacular encounters are schools of hammerhead sharks, along with whitetip sharks, often visible resting on the seabed, and the larger and more inquisitive Galápagos shark. With a little luck, you might even spot the majestic whale shark. Among marine reptiles, the green sea turtle is a constant presence, while the only Galápagos marine iguana offers unique moments swimming underwater in search of algae. Marine mammals are also not lacking: the extremely curious and playful Galápagos sea lion often accompanies divers, while the Galápagos seal is rarer but equally fascinating. On occasion, dolphins can also be spotted in the open sea. The fish world is equally rich: large schools of surgeonfish, colorful parrotfish, angelfish, and butterflyfish, as well as predators such as groupers and barracudas. Among the most unusual species are batfish and triggerfish. The seabed offers an even more diverse world, filled with octopuses, moray eels, seahorses (rarer), and incredibly colorful nudibranchs. The environment is complemented by crustaceans and invertebrates such as lobsters, starfish, sea urchins, and the lively Sally Lightfoot crab along the coast. A fully immersive experience, made possible by impeccable organization and a competent staff, which allowed us to fully explore one of the richest and most fascinating marine ecosystems in the world. A journey you'll never forget.
