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.

Best live-aboard I've ever done
Exactly as mentioned above, the diving was incredible in the Socorro islands, the food on the boat was truly impressive, and the dive masters and support crew went above and beyond to help with gear, logistics, etc.

Spectacular for manta rays
Incredible experiences with Manta Rays who, on one of our dives, visited each person by flying directly overhead - 2 or 3 feet hoping for a bubble tickle. Awesome. A friendly dolphin also enjoyed repeated stroking. A lifetime experience.

Excellent!
Great guides & great diving. Attention has been paid to the same skill level, air consumption, cameras in the individual groups (max.6 divers!!!) to ensure the best possible experience for everyone. The crew is incredibly professional and super organized.

Sea Lions and Whale Sharks
Best parts were diving and interacting with the sea lions. We also had a long snorkel with the Whale Sharks which was quite memorable. The crew was fantastic and food was very good too. In addition black coral forests were fantastic along with nudibranchs and other sea life. Overall an excellent trip.

Folicking Fun
The crew was excellent in helping us enjoy this wonderful ecosystem. When a superpod of common dolphins were close, after diving, they took us out in the Zodiaks (Pangas) to snorkle with them and see them up close. Great food, presented well with gracious accomodations for special diets. They were always courteous and kind, on the boat and in the water Also, sea lions
