Very professional and attentive crew.

The Cabo Pulmo dives were my best, the food was fabulous, the staff were always there to help with anything - nothing too much trouble, the sights above as well as underwater were beautiful. A memorable trip from someone who has done a number of liveaboard trips.

Friendly staff, problem-free trip, spacious boat.

Blissful week on the Valentina

My second trip on the Valentina. My first was to Socorro, this time to Sea of Cortez. Both trips were absolutely great. The crew cannot be beat. Cabins are spacious (per industry standards). Five dives at Los Islotes was FANTASTIC! Last time I dove in the Sea of Cortez (land based) we dived there a measly one time. It is my favorite place in the world and they took the time necessary to properly explore it. Amazing night dive with hundred of mobula rays swarming around us. Breathtaking. It was fun chasing whale sharks the last day. It was a blissful week. Lorenzo and El Capitan are the best! The crew knew my needs and wants before I did. Nice mix of cultures with Japanese, Korean, Spanish, and American divers.

Exceptional crew, wonderful diving, amazing organization and delicious food.

Off the Charts Diving Experience

After over 40 years of diving this was one of our most amazing experiences. Sea life encounters were off the charts. We absolutely loved the diving and boat crew. The boat is a bit weathered but absolutely fine. Our cabin mattresses were not very comfortable as compared to other boats. A mattress upgrade would be meaningful.
