Scuba Diving in Puerto Rico

11 tours · €62–€208 per person · ★ 4.8

Scuba diving in Puerto Rico starts from the beach for most visitors, and the 11 dive trips here were picked by hand from listings rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €62 per person for a shore dive that includes the guide, tanks and weights but rents the rest, to €208 for a two tank boat trip on the south coast. Beginners get the discover scuba format, a briefing and a shallow guided dive with turtles off San Juan or Rincón; certified divers get reef dives, two tank boat days out of Fajardo and one trip offshore to see sharks.

A quick way to choose: certified or not settles it, because the two tank boats ask for proof of certification and a health questionnaire; then read the equipment line, since several dives price the tank and weights only and rent the rest; and plan your transport, as most dive centres do not collect from hotels. Nobody flies within a day of the last dive, and gratuities are extra. The best reviewed scuba diving tours in Puerto Rico come first below.
