Encounters with three pinneped species, temperate and tropical reef fish along with large schools of pelagics are the call to action at this amazing offshore oasis!

Beautiful kelp forests and fabulous offshore pinnacles covered with purple hydrocoral add the vavoom to this destination. California diving like it was 75 years ago is how we describe the vibe of San Benito!

We may venture 25 miles east to Isla Cedros as well. This island, 20 miles to the east of San Benito and 20 miles in length is relatively unexplored by divers and we may take you there to experience the unexplored Baja!
