My husband and I went to Catalina Island for the first time on Wed., April 11th. We had Groupons for the power snorkeling tour with Catalina Snorkel and Scuba at the Casino Point Underwater Dive Park and a trip to the island on the Catalina Flyer from Newport Beach. I was a little anxious about the snorkeling, as it had... More

We had a wonderful experience on our recent snorkel trip. The other four people in our group cancelled so it was just me and my husband. I thought they would cancel but instead they gave us a wonderful experience!! Thanks guys loved it!!

Attentive hosts David and Paul helped to make this experience a wonderful afternoon of underwater discovery. A few in our party had little if any previous experience but were soon confident to step into this new world. The fish and corral were fantastic and the feeding session was awesome. For the money $90 was well worth paying.

I scheduled a dive with Catalina Snorkel and Scuba to dive a kelp bed. I checked-in and waited a long time to get my rental equipment. The rental equipment was worn and not a good fit. I was not the only diver to have this problem. The dive itself was a shore dive to Casino Reef. There must have been... More

Our organization has booked an annual snorkeling trip with Catalina Snorkel and Scuba for the past 4 years. We have never been disappointed! The owner and staff are so efficient even while handling a large group (we were almost 50). They are understanding and accommodate all of our requests as we are bringing children and teens with special needs. The... More

Though I have a C-card, it'd been a while since I'd been diving and Dave quickly convinced me to do an introductory dive together with my son. On the morning of our dive, Dave wasted no time in getting... More

I recently went to Catalina to dive. After doing some research, I decided to head out with Diver Dave at Catalina Snorkel and Scuba. I was a little apprehensive because I have very little experience since I got my certification and have only dived in warm water. I quickly realized I had nothing to worry about! He was extremely professional... More

My son and I had a great dive experience with Diver Dave. It was our first time and I was very nervous. Dave is very personable and friendly but he takes your safety seriously. We spent some time going over the equipment and how to properly use them. The day was sunny and bright and the water so so clear.... More

We met Diver Dave at his office near Lovers Cove for an 8am dive. This was my first dive in California and I was a bit hesitant due to the water temp but He put us at ease and fitted us with all the required gear. He was prepared, professional and knowledgeable of the area. He pointed out sharks, eels,... More
