Explore Ecuador

Ecuador offers an exceptional diving experience, blending vibrant marine biodiversity with breathtaking underwater landscapes. As an adventurer's paradise, this country is renowned for its thrilling encounters with large pelagic species and marine mammals, drawn by powerful currents and nutrient-rich upwellings. The Galapagos Islands, a crown jewel of Ecuador, are a sanctuary for divers seeking close encounters with unique, fearless marine life, thanks to strict conservation efforts. Here, the spirit of Darwin lives on, with divers marveling at the endemic species thriving in this protected marine park. Beyond the Galapagos, Ecuador’s mainland coast offers its own underwater marvels, particularly within Machalilla National Park. This is the mainland's sole marine park, promising sightings of species similar to those in the Galapagos without extensive travel or high costs. Isla de la Plata, accessible from Puerto López, is a highlight, offering divers the chance to explore vibrant reefs teeming with life. Whether opting for a shore dive or a liveaboard adventure to remote sites like Darwin Island, Ecuador's diverse dive environments ensure unforgettable experiences for both novice and seasoned divers.
