Comments Monica and Yago run a 1st class operation. They were attentive from the check-in all the way through a week of diving three tanks per day! Yago is a great dive master and adapted to our needs and desires. Victor is a fabulous captain and took us through many dolphin pods that played with the boat like puppies. Monica prepared a "just right" lunch for us each day so our time on the boat was awesome. The backroll entry is easy and the ladder back in the boat is sturdy and balanced with Victor helping you to your seat. Equipment is is great condition. They changed our tanks and took care of our needs. The diving is amazing and some sites had so many fishes you could hardly see past the schools! Diving with Sea Lions is quite an experience! Saw a few Eagle rays and a group of mobula's. Macro life was amazing with nudibranchs galore and many other things Yago found for us. We dove on all 3 islands, Danzante, Carmen, and Coronado. The seas were flat as glass and the boat large and comfortable. Highly recommend Loreto diving and Blue Nation in particular.
We stayed in a very nice AirBNB called Casa Alegria. 3 bed 3 bath with pool very near downtown.
