Seahunter in August
Diving in the Sea of Cortez was beautiful at the end of August. It was very hot in the area and the boat’s AC worked well. The water was very warm and there were hundreds of fish to see. We were on the Seahunter and the boat is very spacious and comfortable. There is plenty of space and storage in the rooms. The dive deck is large with a big charging table. The crew was very helpful and we had wonderful dives.

Amazing trip!
Overall, this was the best diving I have ever done. We had so many mantas, dolphins, sharks, whale sharks on every dive. The entire crew was friendly and helpful! I have a dietary restriction and the chef did a perfect job of accommodating me and the food was delicious. The boat itself is not the best, a little noisy and has treacherous stairs to the lower deck, I didn’t get hot water even one time in my room, and there was black soot/ash on the top deck that got all over my feet, clothes, everything. Despite this, overall amazing trip.

unforgettable experience
The underwater world has surpassed everything seen so far. The crew on the boat was super friendly, helpful and took care of the well-being of the guests. An all-round successful trip. Come back on this boat, the number of guests is ideal, so you don't get in each other's way under water.

Incredible week - go here to see the BIG stuff!
Had an awesome week! The best pelagic big stuff diving I've had anywhere in the world, mantas on every dive, hammerheads, close encounters with dolphins, tons of sharks and humpback whale watching from the surface. The crew was great, and were willing to take us on a launch between dives to go snorkeling with a school of false killer whales. The captain coordinated with other boats so that we were the only boat at Roca Partida (having multiple boats would have reduced our dives there).
