You will be picked up at your hotel in the Flamingo area and taken to the boat for your ride to Catalina Islands. Catalina has become very popular among divers since it is considered an unexplored paradise with several different sites to be discovered. Few places in the Western Hemisphere can match the enormous amount of fish activity found among the rocky islets and undersea pinnacles off this coastline. Schools of thousands of fish are encountered at almost every dive site. Reef fish species are a blend of Pacific Coast and Tropical Pacific varieties. Large marine life encountered by divers includes giant manta rays, several species of sharks, turtles, eagle rays, great grouper and whale sharks.
