Sea Experience

Sea Experience has been a perennial Readers Choice Award winner since 2019—its staff, boats and facility have all earned awards, and it also earned high praise for its attention to safety. In fact, if you took all the things divers say they want in a dive operation and created a checklist, Sea Experience would tick every single item.

The diving is truly among the best in South Florida. With a convenient beachside location at the Bahia Mar DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Sea Experience puts divers and snorkelers on the most beautiful sites in year-round warm water. For divers, there are a host of renowned wrecks, including Robert Edmister and Hog Heaven, as well as relaxing reef drift dives. On the shallow Fort Lauderdale Twin Ledges site, snorkelers will spot some of the same colorful tropical fish divers see—such as French, grey and queen angelfish.

When you choose Sea Experience, everything is at your fingertips: The dive boat and glass-bottom snorkeling boat are at the resort’s marina, so the boats are just steps away from your room, as are the dive shop, gear rental facility, classroom and pool. The retail shop is open seven days a week.

A PADI Five Star Career Development Center (CDC), Sea Experience also offers instruction from Discover Scuba Diving experiences to Master Scuba Diver Trainer courses and beyond.

Sea Experience takes pride in everything it does, from introducing snorkelers to the beauty of the ocean, training divers seeking advanced certifications or simply showcasing the best of Fort Lauderdale.
