Available Tours
2-Day Catalina & Anacapa
Five dives over two days hitting the best of Catalina and Anacapa. Sleep aboard Channel Explorer in your own cabin, eat three meals prepared by Chef Maria, and wake up anchored over a dive site.
3-Day Channel Islands Expedition
Eight dives across three islands — Santa Cruz, Anacapa, and Santa Barbara Island. The real Channel Islands experience. Sea lions, kelp forests, and dive sites most LA divers never see.
5-Day Outer Islands — San Clemente & San Nicolas
The expedition of a lifetime. Fourteen dives at the remote outer Channel Islands — giant black sea bass at San Clemente, blue sharks at San Nicolas, and pristine reefs no one else dives. Nitrox and two night dives included.
Anacapa Island Explorer
Two dives at Anacapa Island — Cathedral Cove, the arch, or Goldfish Bowl depending on conditions. Giant kelp, harbor seals, and some of the best vis in the Channel Islands.
Catalina Deep Walls
Farnsworth Bank and the deep walls of Catalina's backside. Purple hydrocoral, pelagic stingrays, blue sharks, and big yellowtail. Nitrox available and recommended. Advanced certification required.
Catalina Express
Full-day two-tank trip to Catalina's front side aboard Kelp Dancer. Casino Point, Italian Gardens, or wherever conditions are best. Small group means more bottom time and less waiting.
