Located in Baja Sur, Mexico, Orca Dive Baja operates at the heart of one of the most biodiverse marine environments in the world. This centre focuses on eco-tourism, providing specialised expeditions that cater to your specific interests, whether you are looking for a private safari or a structured diving trip.

The operation is built around the principles of sustainable tourism and social responsibility. By focusing on small group sizes and bespoke itineraries, they ensure that your time on the water is both educational and minimally impactful on the local delicate ecosystems.

The team is composed of expert guides and certified instructors who specialise in the unique conditions of the Baja region. Their approach is centred on providing safe, professional, and highly educational dives for every level of diver.

They focus on small group sizes to maintain a high standard of safety and personal attention. This allows for a more intimate connection with the marine life and a more tailored approach to your specific diving goals.

The centre offers a range of training programmes, starting with the Discovery Scuba Dive for those new to the underwater world. For those looking to progress through formal certifications, they provide instruction for various levels of diver expertise.

The region is a magnet for large pelagics and charismatic megafauna. You can expect to see dolphins, whales, rays, and sharks during your time in the water. During the marlin season in the Bay of Magdalena, the opportunity to see these impressive predators increases.

For those looking for specific encounters, the area is known for sightings of Silky sharks, Shortfin mako sharks, Blue sharks, and Hammerhead sharks. You will also frequently encounter sea lions, pelicans, and turtles.

Specifically, the Hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) is a notable resident of the reef systems in areas like Cabo Pulmo.
