Do you want to go out on one live board should you instead travel to the western side of the country and dive in the eastern Pacific Ocean. Just over 400 kilometers south of Los Cabos are the Revillagigedos islands, where the most famous is Socorro. Here you dive surrounded by dancing giant manta rays and playing with dolphins. Be observant because you may have to avoid up to seven different shark species that live here and are frequently seen. If you are lucky, you may experience and be captivated by the migrating humpback whales or even by passing swordfish or shoals of mobulas.
The Sea of Cortez, the California peninsula's own inland sea, is known for whales, sharks and very exciting marine life. Here you can dive from liveaboard as well as from land and stay at the resort. Here, where the desert meets the sea, you have access to fantastic diving. Mexico is truly made for diving and exciting, varied diving trips.

Whale sharks in Isla Mujeres We felt quite tender, but no less expectant, when we landed after about 24 hours at the Cancun airport on the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico. It then took 30 minutes by ferry to get to our little paradise island. With its chalk-white sandy beaches and swaying palm trees, the island offers a unique spectacle. Here we were going to dive with whale sharks in Isla Mujeres.
