Best all round experience
The boat itself was very comfortable, but what stands out the most is the amazing wildlife, it was the best diving of my life. Also the crew was super friendly and professional. Francisca, Lorenzo and David were great. In addition, the food was the best i’ve ever had on a boat, shoutout to the chefs

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.

Big fish and steep walls in the Pacific
Manta rays, impressive drop-offs, dolphins and a whale shark encounter - all in all, a great diving experience. The Revillagigedo Islands (Socorro) give the impression of unspoilt nature - a jewel in the Pacific.

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!

Incredible safari with great boat
The tour on the Valentina was an absolute highlight. The boat with the crew was superb, the food fantastic, and the tour to Socorro (Revilla) was an unmissable diving experience.

Valentina for the win if you want to done Socorro!
I’ve done several and this one was excellent in all aspects. From the food to the service them the attentiveness of the staff the their attention when we had to get ready to dive, come up, and their specific attention to safety! This was a challenging trip from a diving perspective and they made sure we were fully prepared. The food was amazing! They provided lots of videos after the trip to keep us occupied on the boat trip back to shore. I’ll defensively use them again when I’m ready to do sea of Cortez!
