A side airbag apparatus is mounted on a vehicle having a body and a seat on which an occupant is seated. The seat includes a seat section and a backrest section. A passenger compartment is defined in the body. The apparatus includes a first side airbag and a second side airbag. The first side airbag is deployed and inflated between the occupant and a sidewall of the passenger compartment to correspond to a body part of the occupant that includes a lumbar region. The second side airbag is deployed and inflated between the first side airbag and the sidewall of the passenger compartment to correspond to the lumbar region. Thus, when the airbags are deployed and inflated, the lumbar region of the occupant is pushed so that the entire body of the occupant is moved toward the center of the passenger compartment.
