The Channel Islands are one of the most unique underwater environments in the world. Scuba Diving in kelp forests and with sea lions is a rewarding experience for divers more accustomed to tropical waters. Similar to the tropics, the waters are clear with lavish flora and fauna representing every color imaginable, but unlike tropical diving, the giant kelp and playful sea lions offer another dimension to your diving experience. Our location in Santa Barbara gives us unprecedented access to the waters of both the northern and southern Channel Islands. Your Scuba Diving Adventure is just one call away!
Scuba diving in the kelp forests around the Santa Barbara Channel Islands is a unique and different experience for divers more accustomed to tropical waters. Diving in kelp is similar to a walk in a lush forest of trees with these plants growing to heights of more than 120 feet.
