LocalSaver Business Profile: Eco Dive Center

about this business

At the core of every diver is the heart of a conservationist. Our curiosity about the worlds beneath the waves and the creatures that inhabit them has drawn many generations of divers to scuba diving, and we inherit a tradition of protecting the environment that we enjoy every time we dive. At Eco Dive Center believe that we as scuba divers have a unique responsibility to be advocates of the ocean, and we strive to embody that mission in our everyday operations as a dive shop

We're proud to be Southern California's top rated dive facility, Thank You California Divers!

testimonials

A great dive shop with excellent instructors and staff, I got my PADI open water, Advanced Open water and most recently Specialty Diver (Research) from ECO. When I first went in to get PADI open water certified I went in thinking that I would take the course and that would be the end of it once completed. Little did I know that I would be drawn into a whole new hobby and make many new friends afterwards.

The staff at ECO are friendly and knowledgeable and the Instructors proactive in their lessons, diving isn't for everyone but as long as you can pay attention and listen to what the instructors have to say it can be a fun and rewarding experience.
Finished my PADI open water certification with Cullen O'Neil this past weekend - and passed whoop whoop! I'm not a strong swimmer so getting certified has always scared me even if it's been something I have wanted to get for a long time.
I was just recently certified at Eco Dive Center, and the experience was awesome! My instructor Ben Hofileña was amazing, very patient, and an extremely knowledgeable and great teacher.
