About Dive Surf Club
Dive Surf Club is a dive centre and adventure operator that splits its time between the Galápagos and the mainland surf town of Montañita. Run by a multilingual team who spent more than a decade living and diving in the Galápagos, the club brings serious scuba experience to Ecuador's Pacific coast and pairs it with surf, snorkelling and custom tour packages for travellers who want more than a beach day.
In Montañita the club offers PADI diving courses and fun dives alongside surf lessons taught by local instructors, and it teams up with a nearby language school to bundle diving, Spanish classes, accommodation, transport, yoga and salsa into single itineraries. Beyond the water they arrange island-hopping trips, land tours and camping excursions with horseback riding, with all equipment included and guides who work comfortably in English, German or Spanish.
The operation is built around small groups and personalised planning — they've organised everything from solo-traveller certifications to full corporate retreats — and they place a strong emphasis on sustainability and responsible practices around Ecuador's protected marine areas. For visitors basing themselves in Montañita, it's a flexible one-stop shop for underwater and above-water adventure.
