American Diving is the #1 choice for activities on
South Padre Island. We offer snorkel trips, dolphin watch
excursions, diving adventures and diving certification.
We are a world renowned dive center
born from that high-adventure spirit which leads you from the office
door to the hot sandy beaches of the Mexican border. You can share
this excitement with other divers and snorkelers in the deep blue,
unspoiled waters of the "Texas Riviera", territory of the Spanish
Galleons and home to pirates of the Devil's Elbow.
Come see our state-of-the-art training facilities. Dive and snorkel from our USCG documented and inspected vessels.
Diving offers beauty, challenge and excitement.
Come dive with us!
