The Revillagigedo Archipelago
Born from volcanic origins, Socorro is one of four islands that form the Revillagigedo Archipelago. Nestled in a unique geographical location, these remote islands attract some of the most breathtaking marine life on the planet.
From giant manta rays and over 10 species of sharks to playful dolphins and the occasional whale, the waters of Socorro offer an unparalleled diving experience. Join us and discover why this UNESCO World Heritage Site is considered a dream destination for divers worldwide.
Diving and Marine Life
The Revillagigedo Islands are home to some of the most incredible pelagic encounters in the world. Dive with us, and you’ll come face-to-face with graceful giant manta rays, curious dolphins, powerful tuna, and an impressive variety of sharks.
We are often treated to surprise visits by humpback whales, false killer whales, massive bait balls, and schooling sharks. Here, we let the magic of Socorro unfold—every dive is an unforgettable adventure!
Best Time for Your Socorro Adventure
Socorro diving season in the Solmar V runs from November to May each year. The off-season is due to unfavorable weather conditions and hurricane risks, but during these six months, there is never a “bad” time to visit!
The best time to go depends on your preferences. Feel free to ask us for our seasonal wildlife chart, which highlights when specific animals are more commonly seen. If you have a dream marine encounter in mind, let the chart help guide your decision!

Diving: Specific dive sites and locations will be selected by the captain based on weather conditions and the number of other boats in the area. During these five full dive days, you will have the chance to dive at some of our favorite sites, including El Cañon, the Boiler, Red Rocks, Roca Partida, Cabo Pearse, Punta Tosca, and Roca O’Neal. We understand that many guests want to maximize their dive experience, so we strive to offer an average of 4 dives a day, except for the day we do our mandatory check-in at the local navy base, where you will likely have the option of 3 dives. The number of dives may vary due to weather conditions, the unpredictability of the ocean, and the presence of other dive boats.

Very responsive on what’sapp and gave clear information on the tour and how to get there. The place is very pretty! The tour guide and the boat captain were friendly. We had 4 stops in our snorkel tour as planned. Visibility was not great , but it was still amazing. I hope to go back for scuba diving one day. I also liked that they keep things real: (1) do not try to sell things that may not happen (due to nature), (2) they do not put additional fees - what they tell you is what you pay (very different than other tours I have seen around Los Cabos) One point to highlight is that the boat is small, so if the ocean is rough it may not be the best for people that get sea sickness.
