Safe + Happy :)
We had an amazing time aboard the Tiburon explorer for my 40th birthday! The staff were all amazing and felt by family by the end. I came onto this trip a bit nervous about water conditions - specifically diving in currents and cold water. But our dive guides made it clear from the start that safety was their top priority - they would assess the conditions and pivot if ever it felt unsafe. They kept reiterating that safety was always top priority. I felt confident and safe diving with them and truly appreciated their patience and their professionalism.

Amazing Service, Amazing Diving!
Obviously the diving was hand’s down amazing. But what really set this trip apart from others is the AMAZING crew on board. You could tell they all enjoyed their jobs and were wonderful to talk with. They all went above and beyond to make this trip nothing short of perfect. Not to mention, the BEST food. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

We cannot ask for more.
The dive guides are superb and the dives are spectacular. The cooks and the bartender. The gorgeous cabin with a large shower that overlooked the ocean. The common room is superbly decorated and furnished.In my opinion, land visits could be improved

- The entire staff is aware of every detail, from placing your fins on the boat to helping you put on your suit. The variety and quality of the meals and the cocktails. The bartender is magnificent. The initial talk about safety and on tour to show us the emergency exits.

A Trip of a Lifetime
We had a wonderful time on the Tiburon Explorer. Everyone was attentive and informative. The boat and cabins were beautiful, spacious, and food was excellent. The crew made sure we had everything we needed. We had lots of assistance with gear. Our cabins were kept clean with made beds and fresh towels daily. We had a couple land tours that were informative about the islands ecology. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and checked all our expectations.
