Overview

Scuba Dogs is a PADI 5-Star Dive Center; the only official operator with all gear, restrooms, showers, lockers and professional staff right there at the Marine Park.

In particular, this scuba tour for certified divers is uniquely AMAZING in the sense that it's a shallow dive no deeper than 30' which allows you to explore safely without decompression issues; practice basic skills and neutral buoyancy in a protected bay; encounter a great diversity and abundance marine life including yellowtail snappers, damselfish, stingrays and turtles; and explore a diverse bottom composition including the historic fish wall, statues, roman columns, shipwreck structures, and coral reef formations.

After a colorful description of the historic and ecological value of this epic site, a professional theory review on the science of diving, and basic skills training in the shallow part of the shoreline, you'll be exploring the entire bay safely under the direct supervision of a dive professional.

What To Expect

Scuba Dogs at Escambrón Marine Park

Enjoy the natural beauty of an urban reef located in a historic site in the middle of metropolitan San Juan. Dive alongside our guides as we explore a protected bay area, natural and artificial reef formations, ruins of the historic "fish wall", and our version of Atlantis with a collection of small scale replicas Greek and Roman sculptures and columns. Occasionally, you may be able to see our resident green and hawksbill sea turtles, southern stingray and squid!!This 1-Tank Certified Scuba Tour requires a SCUBA certification of Open Water Diver or higher level from a recognized diving organization (PADI, NAUI, SSI). Guests that do not hold any of these certifications can participate in the Discover Scuba Diving excursion. Guests will be required to walk with full SCUBA equipment including tank and weights in and out of the water.

Q: Will I get seasick on Scuba Tour for Certified Divers in San Juan?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
