Highlights
The M/V Solmar V liveaboard is a staple for diving in the Socorro Islands. With over 25 years of experience and known for having the most experienced dive liveaboard crew in Mexico, the Solmar V caters to 22 guests in 12 cabins. With recent refurbishing and massive upgrades, the SolmarV offers the choice of Staterooms, superior, standard, and single cabin options for solo travelers. Each stateroom features individual climate control, a private bathroom with a shower, a pillow-top mattress, non-allergenic down alternative pillows, and comforters. Superior cabins are located in the middle of the boat and are slightly larger. With its rich mahogany and granite tabletops, the salon provides comfortable seating, a large-screen television, and a full entertainment system. The solarium is partially covered with sun loungers for relaxing in between dives.
The Solmar V offers exciting dive itineraries with some of the world's giant pelagics, from Giant Mantas to whale sharks and humpback whales. The Revillagigedo Archipelago offers all the big-fish encounters a diver could wish for. With over 10 shark species, playful dolphins, and even the chance to dive with orcas, the Socorro Islands will deliver a dive trip to remember for a lifetime. Diving from the Solmar V is easy as the vessel offers a spacious dive deck with a multi-level camera table, rinse tanks and freshwater showers.

- BEST - diving marine life, crew friendliness, cabins clean/comfortable.. IMPROVEMENT NEEDED-vegetarian meals often lacked protien, my guide lacked dive briefings, 1 motor for trip is a dangerous risk shouldnt take

Beyond my wildest dreams!
OMG, is such an understatement! I just returned from diving in the Revillagigedo Archipelago aboard the Solmar V. Beyond my wildest dreams! This was SCUBA, that I grew up watching Jaques Cousteau dive. Beautiful Giant Pacific Manta Rays on almost every dive. Schools of Hammerhead Sharks. Playful Bottlenose Dolphins. World class diving. The Divemasters! Mariana Danny & Servando were the best. Under the water and above. Such hard working fabulous folks. The whole crew was great. The stewards, Idris & Dani were everywhere! Hot tea, hot chocolate after dives, fabulous & attentive. Oue chef, Claudia was a rock star. I like GOOD food, hers is the best! All day, everyday. Four of us celebrated birthdays while on board. She made special birthday celebration deserts for each. The Captain Armando, always available for information or a hand betting up from the banga boat after your dive. I could go on and on about each crew member. I will never forget them. I absolutely need to thank Luis! Helping haul my waterlogged self, back into the banga after EVERY dive, thank you sir! What about the other divers! 20 other divers from all over the world, such wonderful, beautiful people. I deal with significant hearing difficulties and everyone, guests and crew were the best, patient and took time to sincerely chat with me. Thank you ALL for helping fulfill a lifelong dream. Love you all. Pete
