Socorro Liveaboard - Rocio del Mar

Imagine diving into one of the planet’s most awe-inspiring marine sanctuaries. In the Revillagigedo Islands, you’ll feel the vastness of the ocean as never before—a wild, vibrant world floating 250 miles off the Mexican coast. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, this archipelago is every diver’s dream: hammerhead sharks, giant mantas, playful dolphins, dense fish schools, and thrilling chances to spot tiger sharks or humpback whales.

Over 10 days aboard Quino del Mar, you’ll head deep into the Pacific for 6 full days of diving in volcanic seamounts, dramatic walls, and open waters where marine life flourishes with raw beauty. This is not just a tour—it’s a true expedition, with expert logistics, onboard camaraderie, and access to a destination reachable only by liveaboard.

Available November through May, with seasonal encounters such as humpback whales (February to April) or whale sharks (November, December, and May), this journey is ideal for experienced divers seeking the most epic side of the Mexican Pacific.
