Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Boca Catalina

This is a popular site for diving, snorkeling and just relaxing in the sun. There are several shades in the area, and the beach is perfect for kids. Head to the North part of the island. About 500 m North of the Northern 1B 2B intersection, you'll see the beach on your left.

We have snorkeled this site for several years -- since getting our own gear about 9 years ago. It's a pleasant place. All of this area is good for novices for about 1/2 mile - 3/4 mile along...the areas called Boca Catalina/Arashi Beach. Once or twice, there has been a fairly strong current pushing you north. We snorkel from shore probably up to 50 yards from shore. Visibility is better if you get there before the numerous tour boats arrive mid-morning.
