Choose from Four Options
- $19 for a snorkeling tour of Lover’s Cove for one (a $45 value)
- $35 for a snorkeling tour of Lover’s Cove for two (a $90 value)
- $34 for a power-snorkeling tour of Lover’s Cove for one (a $69 value)
- $59 for a power-snorkeling tour of Lover’s Cove for two (a $138 value)<p>
Both tours explore the same territory and include snorkeling equipment: a mask/snorkel (prescription masks available), fins, a wetsuit, a snorkeling vest, and a view raft. The power-snorkeling tour comes with a Bladefish—a compact, handheld propeller which pulls snorkelers through the water. After leading a brief tutorial, instructors guide visitors on the Lover’s Cove snorkeling tour. The waters teem with brightly colored marine life, such as blue-dotted starfish and the bright-orange garibaldi—a fish so tame it will often eat french fries straight from divers’ hands. Guides also plunge down to the seafloor, bringing back up marine animals for tourists to experience firsthand. After about 45 minutes of guided snorkeling, participants get time for free swim. As there are no onsite changing facilities, guides advise visitors to wear their swimsuits beneath their street clothing. Towel rentals ($3) and locker rentals ($2) are available.
Catalina Snorkel & Scuba
Just off the coast of southern California in the waters surrounding Catalina Island resides an underwater civilization as awe-inspiring as the city above. To see it, the experienced divers of Catalina Snorkel & Scuba outfit explorers of all skill levels to swim over the marine landscape, leading journeys into the protected Casino Underwater Dive Park, the kelp forest, and Lover’s Cove—which made Coastal Living’s Top Spots to Snorkel. In addition to guiding tours, Catalina Snorkel & Scuba also rents snorkeling equipment and leads classes that range from introductory dives to advanced, postcertification scuba training to become the next Aquaman.

Need To Know Info
About Diving Catalina
Diving Catalina provides safe and educational snorkel and scuba diving activities for the whole family. Operating out of the Casino Point Underwater Park, one of the best shore diving areas in California.
To make entry and exit in and out of the water as easy as possible, there are cement stairs with handrails. The Park is about 2.5 acres in size, which means it is large enough to do several dives without traversing over the same areas. The Park’s boundaries are clearly marked with a line of buoys to keep boats and divers away from one another. The diverse under-sea world at the Underwater Park offers both beginner and expert divers a dive experience like no other area
Because of strict local laws prohibiting taking of game or salvaging artifacts, the park has become a home for a large variety of marine life. Plant life of all colors abounds, from the Giant kelp to the smallest algae. Living within the rocky reef are lobsters, abalone, octopus, small fish and moray eels, including our friendly "Fang". Numerous mollusks and nudibranchs also make their homes on the reef.
Swimming freely in the kelp forest are Kelp bass, Senorita fish, Sheephead, Opaleye, Blacksmith and our state marine fish, the Garibaldi. Where the rocky reef ends, the sandy bottom begins. Scuba divers may find angel sharks, bat rays, banded guitar fish and halibut. Numerous wrecks are also found in the sandy areas, which have become home to many types of marine life.
Casino Point has become a mecca to scuba divers and snorkelers worldwide.
