Amazing dives, awesome experience
I was on a few liveaboards already, but this one was the best. I can highly recommend it. The crew was super friendly, everyone always smiled and helped whenever needed. The diving was well organized and overall amazing. Our dive guide Cristina was super nice, very experienced and took good care of everyone in the group while still giving us room while diving. She was really excellent. Also, it was great hanging out with the people on the boat in between the dives, no matter if it were other guests or people from the crew.

Best dives with the best crew
The Revillagigedo National Park is absolutely amazing, every dive gave us encounters and experiences that in any other part of the world would be out of the ordinary. In this place, it really seems like time has never passed, and animals can feel curious about divers and seek interaction. The boat is nice and comfortable and offers different areas to spend time on board. The crew was great, they took care of us, solved any issue that could arise and they made the experience more than just a diving trip. Special mention to the diving instructors, who were able to plan the dives perfectly thanks to their knowledge of the park and to transmit their love and passion for this place

Great diving, amazing food and service. Did not disappoint.
A highly memorable week in the sea of Cortez. Leaving from the beautiful town of La Paz ( take some extra time to enjoy before or after Liveaboard trip) Saw oceanic manta up close many times. Loads of friendly sea lions. Hammerhead, dolphins and LOADS of beautiful fish. Visibility not great close to La Paz but improved greatly as we headed north. The food was great, service wonderful. They even helped me with my tank when learning I had a bad back. Thanks Kike and Chris. The food is really terrific. Delicious and hearty breakfast lunch and dinner. Attention to detail was impressive from a boat kitchen. Thanks Diego.. you are a hero! We enjoyed a cocktail at the end of the last dive each day. Always different and delicious. Also beer soft drinks on free flow. Thanks Joel. Bed linen and towels changed frequently. Pepe and Jesus also were so helpful and friendly. Even the captain Elea ar greeted and helped us out of dive boats at end of the day, dancing as they helped! Lots of fun. Every day felt like a celebration. Wonderful Mexican hospitality. Can not recommend highly enough. The only drawback was that there are only single bunk beds on the boat. Each room has a sink for teeth washing before bed. Showers/ toilets close by and excellent. ( a few issues with toilets but they were fixed promptly)

It went very well! They made a birthday cake for me, which was a very nice touch. Bringing your own fins is vital as the ones they offer are not sufficient for the current at a couple sites, but the sites are worth it! Also, nitrox should be more highly recommended as a lot of the sites are deeper!

Onboard the Adventure-Sunrider scuba
The Liveaboard on the Adventure through Sunrider Scuba was absolutely incredible. Mario was prompt and informative when I originally reached out to inquire about this trip. His emails were well written, clear, and answered all of my questions. He even called a few weeks prior to ensure everything was in order! This was our first Liveaboard and this experience will be a hard one to beat. The entire staff, including the captain, the crew master and the dive masters alike treated us like friends, not customers. We are vegetarians so eating while abroad is always a challenge. Our cook, Mili, created amazing meals that were delicious, completely homemade, and exactly to our liking. Our dive master, David, was organized, knowledgeable, informative, and ensured that we all had a wonderful dive experience throughout the entirety of the trip. We most definitely became better divers under his watchful eye. The captains of the dinghies, Pepe and Willi, kept us safe and secure getting in and out of the boat even in rough seas which on some days was quite the feat! The entire staff pitched in to give us, their guests, the best service possible with the serving of our meals and preparing our equipment for the next dive. This was so welcoming to be able to return from a dive, eat, then head back out to the ocean for more. What could be better? We shared the boat with 9 other divers who were a constant source of amusement and entertainment. Everyone got along beautifully. We were so lucky to have experienced such an amazing trip with other like-minded divers who shared the love for this incredible sport. And the diving? WOW. Giant mantas galore. Hammerheads, dolphins, and abundant whitetip, silvertip, and the occasional Galapagos shark thrown in. The Adventure communicated with other ships in order to make our dives the very best that they could be. Our itinerary changed a bit from what was posted in the description to insure our safety. Thanks for that! We were always well briefed as what to expect regarding the current and surge among other things. Most importantly, our dive masters kept us safe! We couldn’t be happier with our first Liveaboard experience.

Sick dives, amazing crew
The dives were amazing! It's worth the detour! The guides Mau and Christina are fantastic! Always listening to you, ready to help you. The rest of the crew is not to be outdone! Always smiling, laughing, they are all great The part to equip yourself is quite good, sometimes the passages are a bit tight, to tidy up, to unequip yourself, rinse the wetsuits but it remains functional.The rooms are ok, a bit small, when you are on the top bed you are very close to the ceiling, and not being able to turn off the air conditioning is the worst, forcing you to put the towels against the air vent all the stayThe toilets and shower are shared but it's quite nice.I've already done cruises on much more luxurious boats so it's hard to give it my all but nothing prevents you from having a great stayThe food is super good, but a little too many tortillas for my taste, and I love eating bananas on the stay, it ran out quickly after 2/3 days

A truly unforgettable and breathtaking trip of a lifetime, don't hesitate!
The Adventure live aboard scuba trip out to the Revillagigedo Islands is a once in a lifetime experience. This has something for everyone, particularly those seeking a genuine nature experience with apex animals in their unspoilt environment. Firstly the boat, The Adventure is a customised vessel fitted specifically for a dive trip like this, it has a wonderful dining area, a very comfortable upper sun deck to warm up between dives, cabins that are cozy but very comfortable and communal bathroom/showers male & female that are kept sparklingly clean 100% of the time. She rides well if there is any swell about and is particularly quiet at night in the lower cabins where I stayed during my trip. The diving, simply stunning, what a privilege to spend quality time in the midst of some truly ancient and iconic creatures of the sea... We had endless encounters with giant Manta Rays, Hammerhead schools, Galapagos sharks, Silver & white tips, even quiet a few incredible Tiger sharks which were breathtaking to say the least. The not so iconic species were well represented too, with smaller fish of every colour and shape rounding out a truly mind-blowing diving experience. The crew, without question the crew on the Adventure are a well oiled, highly professional and cohesive team that bend over backwards in all facets of hospitality to make your experience something above and beyond. Special mentions to our incredible dive instructors Christina & David who kept us on schedule, in the right places at the right times and most importantly as safe as possible, they are both brilliant at their jobs and can't recommend them more highly. Joel the key steward onboard seemed to be everywhere at all times... he kept our rooms spick and span daily and was front and centre at all meal times catering to any and every need we had. Milli.... food is always the toughest job onboard any vessel and Millie not only made it look effortless but she provided us very high quality offerings each meal and all with a huge small and touch of homeliness in every dish. Every one of the crew were fabulous and I appreciated their efforts the entire trip and they should be very proud of their efforts. In closing, I would suggest you give serious consideration to the Adventure and her amazing team when looking at booking a Liveaboard to these islands, sure there are larger and fancier boats doing this trip but I can assure you the small creature comforts are left wanting in comparison to the warm and delightful crew that will go to every effort to make your trip an unforgettable one. 10/10 from my experience, and just to note I, myself work as a Super Yacht Captain so I know a good team when I see one.

Diving was spectacular. Each dive brought a new surprise ! Rooms are a little small but compensated by a great value for money. Food was not great (the cook had been hired a few days priori apparently !) but drinks were free and the crew was incredibly helpful and attentive to our needs. Our dive guide was a bit too focused on mantas, which made a miss a few things during dives.

Incredible diving
The dives on this trip were absolutely incredible, with very frequent extended encounters with huge oceanic mantas, curious hammerheads and playful dolphins. On two different dives at El Canyon we had moments with hammerheads below us, dolphins swimming through our group and massive mantas above us, all at the same time. Incredible. The atmosphere on the boat was very fun. Kike and Cristina were excellent hosts, and the whole crew were friendly and really eager to serve and help guests. I was impressed by how much work the dive guides had to manage in particular, running exhausting dives but also having to do all the technical work with the gear and refilling air. Cristina was my guide and I was amazed by her endless friendliness, positivity, knowledge, enthusiasm and passion for nature. The location seems to attract fun people, as all the guests on our boat were lovely, too. The small rooms and shared bathroom are functional for an adventure rather than luxurious. If you're a light sleeper, some rooms are a touch noisy as there is not much separation from the working areas that staff have to start using very early, but you're so worn out you tend to crash out anyway. A previous review made some suggestions about splitting up group preparation on the boat and avoiding the high pressure air hoses, and it was great to see these exact recommendations have been implemented already. Dive preparation felt calm and safe. As other reviews have pointed out, these are tough dives with currents, occasional low visibility, and large guest-to-guide ratios. Confusion and different understandings in our group about surfacing procedures and what we would all do when one person was low on air emerged on a couple of dives - I would recommend future guests do not presume protocol and make sure with all your group and guide that everyone has the exact same understanding. On one long dive my air cut on the safety stop while still reading as having 30 bar remaining - the reading still on my gauge even on the surface after the dive, as I was able to show others. I was glad the guides told me that the gauge would be taken out of circulation, and I hope there will be a check of all the gauges. I think these things are really important for safety, but they should be relatively easy to fix, and the boat has a good record of implementing feedback. Overall the experience and wildlife were fantastic. This would be an excellent trip for someone looking for a challenging adventure, particularly if you have experience already of diving in high current locations like Galapagos or the Maldives.

A Good Challenge
This was a good trip. But it was also a bit of a challenge. The sea was never calm (bring motion sick pills!) which made moving around the boat or in and out of boats a constant adventure, there was a lot more swimming against the current then I realized there would be, visibility was often not great, and we had to bail on more than one dive due to no visibility or currents that pulled us the wrong way. We also had a handful of stunning dives and incredible interactions with mantas. The Pacific Ocean is apparently just very unpredictable! Our dive guides Cristina and Rafa were very good. They obviously love what they do and that energy kept me going on all the 4 dive days. They worked very hard and had to always be filling tanks in between dives. This made them a little bit inaccessible during the day. The ratio of DM to diver was also 8:1 which is higher than I'm used to. I sometimes felt a bit forgotten under water as I was traveling solo and was given a buddy that didn't do all of the dives. Luckily there were very experienced divers in my group who kept an eye on me. I was also not told we needed our own SMB and so I didn't have one. Luckily I was able to go up early with another experienced diver when I needed to. The boat was comfortable and clean. Meals were a bit later than I'm used to (2:30pm lunches and 7/8pm dinners) but the food was very good. I'm vegan and the chef made me delicious alternatives. Sometimes my meal wouldn't come out until after everyone had finished but the chef has a small kitchen and it was always worth the wait. Overall a good trip with a good crew.

Outstanding Marine Life, but Safety Depends Heavily on Guide and Grouping
Socorro delivered exceptional marine life: large schools of hammerheads, tiger sharks, whale shark, mantas, and multiple close dolphin encounters. The crew was cheerful, hard-working, and genuinely caring, and the vessel was kept clean with a positive onboard atmosphere. However, I had significant concerns regarding dive management and safety margins during part of the trip. Many dives involved extended bottom time at depth, prolonged swimming against strong current at depth, and minimal reserve margins. Many divers reached 0–2 minutes NDL or entered decompression, and multiple divers consistently ran very low on air or out of air. Some very advanced, adventurous divers were allowed a high degree of freedom, which increased risk for the rest of the group in a remote environment where help is far away. These divers were mixed with very inexperienced divers in the same group, creating elevated risk not only for them, but also for mid-level divers like myself, who received insufficient monitoring in a high-risk environment. There were a few close calls which I won’t go into details about. In some cases, air was shared to extend dives, when the safer decision would have been to end the dive and begin ascent. After switching to Cristina’s group, the difference was immediately apparent. Dives were tightly managed and cohesive, air was checked frequently, ascents were conducted together, and divers surfaced with adequate reserves and double-digit NDLs. Dive plans also required less continuous finning, resulting in safer and more enjoyable dives. Cristina is an excellent guide — attentive, safety-focused, cheerful, and genuinely caring both underwater and topside. Accommodation was functional and comfortable with adequate storage, and I slept well. Shared bathrooms were well maintained and never problematic. Food was acceptable and thoughtfully prepared, though mid-level compared to another liveaboard I was on in this area. I would also like to note that management responded compassionately and took my concerns very seriously, conducted internal reviews, and reassigned my dive group during the trip, which I appreciated. Recommendation I would not return unless dive management is consistently more conservative with stronger safety margins, or unless there is better guide-to-guest ratio, improved skill matching within groups, or the option for private guides. For prospective guests: without knowing what safety improvements will be made in their dive operation yet, I would recommend this trip if you are DM-level or fully comfortable diving solo in strong current with minimal supervision. Otherwise, there are potential safety concerns if you are matched with an incompatible guide or group mix.

Overall experience was good but not great
Overall the boat, the crew, and the experience were good but it was also not as good as I had experienced on one of my past liveaboard trips to the Revillagigedo Archipelago. Note that the Adventure boat does not have slip in the Cabo San Lucas marina but is instead anchored outside the marina so everyone's luggage and all divers must be transported to and from the Adventure boat on a small dingy. The standard 2 person rooms are quite small with very little storage and have bunkbed style sleeping with no headroom for the person in the top bunk. There is a very small sink in the room but the restroom and shower is located in the bow of the boat which makes for challenging use of the facilities as the boat does not have stabilizers and tends to pitch and roll excessively even in mild seas. On my specific trip there were 16 guest divers, 3 women and 13 men so the 2 mens toilets were very busy and it was common that you would have to wait for a toilet to become available. While there was plenty of talk about safety, there was a very serious safety issue out on the dive deck when gearing up for every single dive (22 dives in all this trip). There are 2 dingy's and the 16 derivers were separated into 2 different groups of 8 divers which is a good thing. What was not good and a real safety issue is that operationally the crew had all 16 divers gearing up at the same time on the dive deck even though the second group of the day could not get onto their dingy until after the first group for the day had already boarded their digs and departed. With 16 guest divers and 2 divemasters all gearing up simultaneously there were numerous instances where divers were injured by other divers Turing around and banging someone with a tank or someone stepping on someone else's toes or smashing fingers of someone sitting on the bench while the diver next to them would sit back down with their tank on. Additionally not all tanks had been refilled with nitrox when divers were called to gear-up so people were having to step over high pressure compressed air lines that were in use in order to get to their dive equipment. A simple solution to this problem while still being efficient in getting both groups geared up in a timely manner would be to have the second group of the day go to the dive deck first to collect all there wetsuits or drysuits then go up to the sundeck to put on that first layer of gear. This would open up the dive deck for the first group of the day to get fully geared up in a safe manner then once on the dingy the second group of the day could come back onto the dive deck and finish gearing up, heading out on their dingy within 15-20 minutes of the first group departure. Simple yet effective in reducing accidents and dramatically improving safety on the dive deck. Compared to past liveaboard trips that I have taken to this same location, this boat was by far the most expensive but did not provide any added value for the additional expense. My biggest disappointment was where the crew decided to have us go for our day of diving (only dives the first day). The dive site, which I had never gone to on any of my previous trips to Revillagigedo archipelago, was named "Lava Flow" which was at the base of the San Benedicto island volcano where ash from past eruptions continuously washes down into the sea so the visibility was absolutely terrible and the seas were quite rough making it extremely challenging for several divers to get back into the dingy after each of these first 2 dives. This was no way to have divers new this island (I was the only diver in the entire group of 16 guest divers that had been to this remote group of islands previously) and several divers struggled with buoyancy and using unfamiliar rental dive gear. The Lava Flow dive site should not even be on their list of dive sites in my very experienced opinion.
