Normally dive operator take scuba divers to boring dive sites for a check dive. This was not the case in the Galapagos. The captain took us to a shallow bay filled with juvenile Sea Lions.
I couldn’t ask for more – I love Sea Lions!

Sea lions are definitely one of my favorite animals underwater. They have so much personality when they are young.

Surprising how big those guys are up close, and how agile they are underwater compared to on land.

Sea lions seem like the dogs of the sea!

They have a lot of dog/puppy qualities. They are extremely curious and playful when younger. Also, they bark underwater – https://youtu.be/BbtrZD7whBk

I saw a man on a stand up paddle board with his dog approach a seal. The dog and seal seemed fixated on each other. The dog was well trained and did not bark or go off the board. Cool they bark underwater.

Sea Lions remind me of juvenile dogs. They have similar qualities – playful, curious, engaging, etc.

Don’t think they have taken any on their scuba trips yet. I know they have taken photos. They got their teen son into it as well.
