Sea Lions Dive Center

Sea of Cortez, Mexico

Sea Lions Dive Center sits right on the edge of the Sea of Cortez, and they’re a solid choice if you’re looking to get serious about your diving. Their Diamond course is a deep dive into advanced techniques, which we’d suggest for anyone aiming to truly hone their skills, rather than just tick a box. We've always found their boat crews to be efficient, getting you out to those stunning local reefs quickly, and if you’re particularly keen on getting up close with the resident sea lion colonies, you can’t really go wrong here. They keep their groups small, which means more direct attention from the instructors, a real plus when you're working on something intricate like buoyancy or navigation.
