Reviews

What divers say

★★★★★
“A spectacular adventure that was made possible by skilled, fun, delightful DMs and a great boat crew. Can’t say enough good things about Christina and Mauricio — we were very lucky to have them lead us on dives and create a joyful atmosphere on the ship. The diving was incredible and passengers bonded nicely with the staff to create a fun, exciting atmosphere.”

★★★★★
“Adventure’s staff and crew were delightful, very friendly, well organised and efficient with their planning. It made me feel very comfortable onboard, especially during long sailing journeys and diving in some challenging conditions.”

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Open Water certification is the minimum. Most dives are suitable for recreational divers and divemasters are in the water with every group. Advanced Open Water is recommended for specific deeper sites, but is not required for every dive on the trip.
The $200 discount applies per cabin when you enquire and confirm your booking via WhatsApp during July 2026. No promo code needed — just mention the Diving Month offer when you message and it will be reflected in your quote. Valid for the August departures listed on this page.
Included: cabin, all meals and non-alcoholic drinks, 12–14 guided dives (including night dives), tanks, weights and gear storage. Not included: flights, transfers to La Paz, nitrox, personal equipment rental, alcoholic drinks, marine park fees, and dive insurance (strongly recommended).
Yes. Nitrox is available on board for certified Nitrox divers at an additional cost. Ask about nitrox pricing when you enquire.
Not mandatory but strongly recommended. DAN (Divers Alert Network) is the most widely used provider. We also recommend travel insurance covering trip cancellation and medical emergencies at sea.
August is peak season in the Sea of Cortés. Water temperatures reach 28–30°C, whale sharks are regularly spotted in La Paz bay, and sea lion pup season makes Los Islotes especially playful and active. Visibility averages 15–25m and night dives bring out a completely different cast of species. One of the best months in the calendar.
