Top 7 Dive Shops in Cabo Pulmo
Looking for a dive shop in Cabo Pulmo?
For a small fishing village home to a few hundred people, there are more that 10 diving centres in town! How do you pick a shop to dive with?
I dive Cabo Pulmo at least once every year, and while I haven’t dove every shop I get the chance to see them operate. Also gossip travels fast in a small town, so you learn a lot just from chatting with the dive guides! That’s my favourite things about speaking Spanish – getting the gossip!
Whether you’re staying in town, or making a day trip to dive or snorkel, let me share what I’ve learned with you here in my list of the best dive shops in Cabo Pulmo!

Tips for Booking a Dive Shop in Cabo Pulmo
- Book early – Especially in high season (October–January) or holidays
- Ask about group sizes – Some shops run 4 divers per guide, others 6+
- Check for Nitrox – If you need to dive Nitrox for medical reasons, be sure to ask ahead. Not all shops offer it, as oxygen can be hard to source
- Confirm gear rental costs – Some include it, others charge extra
- Bring cash – Not all operators accept cards, and there are no atms in Cabo Pulmo
- Respect the park rules – No gloves, no touching, no harassment of wildlife
Shev’s Summary – Best Cabo Pulmo Dive Shops
No matter which dive shop you choose, Cabo Pulmo is going to leave an impression. It’s wild, remote, and refreshingly undeveloped—exactly what makes it so special.
Always read reviews, I look for pictures, diversity in the people in the photos, and the response time of the dive shop.
With a little planning, you’ll find the dive shop that matches your vibe and helps you get the most out of this incredible marine park.
