Scuba Kicker Rock

Scuba Kicker Rock is a young, San Cristobal–based dive operation in Ecuador's Galápagos, specialising in diving excursions and built by a tight-knit team that treats every visitor like family. They're passionate protectors of marine life, and their goal is simple: to share that wonder with everyone who comes to discover it with them.

Courses, sites and who it suits

As a PADI Resort with 2 PADI Instructors, the centre believes good diving starts with solid basic training — the foundation of safe, enjoyable immersions. Their PADI offerings span scuba diving, freediving and snorkelling, alongside adaptive diving, making it a welcoming choice for newcomers and curious explorers alike.

The waters here teem with sharks, whales, turtles, ocean fish, rays, eels, molluscs, corals and more. Beyond diving, guests can mix things up with snorkel, kayak, surf, paddle surf, mountain biking and hiking. On-site you'll find a classroom, adaptive services, air conditioning, free Wi-Fi, a dive boat, full equipment rental and air fills, with English and Spanish spoken throughout.
