Highlights
The 27m Rocio del Mar liveaboard cruises through to the iconic dive areas of the Socorro Islands, Sea of Cortez, and Baja California and accommodates 20 guests in 10 comfortable staterooms spread over two decks. It offers divers the choice of 3 itineraries, depending on the time of year. All the rooms have private air conditioning, carpets, windows, storage space, and en-suite bathrooms. Meals and snacks are served in the large dining area in the lower deck's forward part and are available throughout the day. Al fresco dining and vegan options are available too. The boat has many relaxation spots, but the sundeck/top deck or the upper deck salon are favorites among the guests. Rocio Del Mar also has a spacious dive deck for storing all diving gear and a camera table for avid photographers.
Scuba diving off the Rocio Del Mar in Mexican waters is a treat. Socorro Island is part of The Revillagigedo Islands, often called Mexico's "Little Galapagos." The itinerary includes diving at San Benedicto, Socorro, Roca Partida, and Clarion Islands. These islands are a magnet for some of the largest pelagic animals in the world, with schooling Hammerhead sharks that come in the hundreds during their migration. Tiger sharks, dolphins, silky sharks, Galapagos sharks, schools of jacks and barracuda, tuna, wahoo, oceanic white tips sharks, whale sharks, and mantas are some charismatic megafaunas that can be spotted here. All dives are led by experienced divemasters who are enthusiastic about sharing their underwater world, and the diving takes place from two pangas or skiffs.

Great time on Rocio del Mar, they did a great job of taking care of us for Snorkeling!
Great job accommodating us for snorkeling. I was somewhat hesitant to book snorkeling (only) on dive boat. But, Rocio del Mar crew did great job accommodating us. We had snorkeling set up every day, with DM -- same schedule as scuba. Everything was top notch -- boats, staff, dive sites, etc. Highly recommended!!

excellente
weather conditions were a bit rough (windy) but everything was still amazing! we did mulitple dives at the same sites due to rough conditions at other sites but i thought was still nice because you get to know the area better, and the wildlife still changes. saw dolphins, mantas, tons of sharks, school of hammerheads, octopus, even a humpback whale although i think its late in the season for that. would highly recommend and hope i get to do this trip again some day

Unbelievable amenities and crew!
The crew was very welcoming and seemed to work together seamlessly. They made sure you always had everything you needed. Dives were great, we got 22 completed by the end of the trip. Could see humpback whales from the boat, dove with dolphins, schooling hammerheads and countless manta rays who were very friendly. Trip of a lifetime!

The diving experience was superb, the dive guides were knowledgeable and friendly, the crew was very helpful.
The biggest highlights were definitely the variety of life we saw - oceanic mantas, dolphins, schools of hammerhead sharks, and don’t forget the whipper snappers! The crew was very friendly and helpful, happy to be on the boat with us. The food was fantastic and plentiful. All in all a wonderful trip I would repeat in a heartbeat.
