An incredible dive trip
Diving Socorro Islands aboard Valentina Liveaboard was honestly one of the best dive experiences I’ve ever had. The crew was incredibly professional, attentive, and genuinely passionate about making every dive unforgettable. The diving itself was spectacular: giant mantas interacting up close, dolphins joining the dives, sharks everywhere, and the raw beauty of the Revillagigedo archipelago. Food onboard was also surprisingly great, with plenty of variety after long dive days.

The crew that goes the extra miles to ensure the trip meets your expectations
Diving with hammerhead, silvertip, whitetip and blacktip sharks as well as manta rays (occasionally encountering an elusive tiger shark). Watching from the boat humpback whales, mobula rays, silky sharks and dolphins. Amazing crew: cheerful, attentive, helpful, enthusiastic, passionate, who will try relentlessly, irrespective of the conditions, to deliver on the trip expectations keeping in mind safety and fun.

This was easily the best scuba trip I have yet been on
The scuba diving was amazing, the water was clear, the manta rays were everywhere, the crew could not have been nicer, The Dive Masters could not have been more professional and helpful.

Incredible Dives, Amazing Crew – A Perfect Liveaboard Experience!
Our dive trip aboard the Valentina Liveaboard was truly unforgettable! The underwater world was absolutely breathtaking—we saw everything we had hoped for and more. From a humpback whale during our dives to giant mantas that came incredibly close, along with countless sharks, hammerheads, and an abundance of marine life, every dive was spectacular. The dive guides went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience possible. They were knowledgeable, attentive, and made sure we got the most out of every dive. The entire crew was outstanding—caring, friendly, and always ready to help, whether it was dealing with seasickness, making sure we were well-fed, or assisting with anything we needed. Speaking of food, the chef was amazing! As vegetarians, we were delighted by the creative and delicious meals—we never felt like we were missing out. Cabins were comfortable, with private bathrooms and hot showers—a must after a long day of diving! Overall, this trip exceeded our expectations, and we would 100% recommend it to anyone looking for an incredible liveaboard experience. 10/10, would do it again!

Unfortunately no sharks but a great liveaboard on an excellent boat
As described above, the overall impression of the "Valentina" was just great, underwater the big fish especially sharks were missing but the dives with the sea lions were an absolute highlight

A diver's dream
Excellent treatment by the diving crews and other members of the crew, very comfortable boat except for the arrangement of the beds in the bunk bed and a destination to fulfill the wishes of a diver, large pelagics and reefs full of life.

Sea of Cortez - Amazing experience with a great crew!
I spent six days on the Valentina diving the Sea of Cortez in mid-November. We departed and disembarked from La Paz. Although there is an airport in La Paz, flights are more readily available into Cabo SJD. La Paz is a two hour drive from the Cabo airport. The Valentina is 130 feet long and was last refit in 2013. The cabins are individually AC controlled with ensuite bathrooms. The public areas are comfortable. The food was superb and plentiful. The crew from the captain to the stewards was awesome. Very attentive to passenger needs both while diving and onboard the ship. The diving was great! Dives are conducted from zodiacs. The highlight was the sea lions at Los Islotes. Their playfulness and love for interacting with divers is legendary. We also encountered schools of Mexican Barracuda , Sardines and one group (6) Scalloped Hammerheads. We did two night dives with Mobula Rays in the same bay in about 20 feet of water. Lights are used to attract the plankton which brings in the Mobula.
