Comments	A big plus for us (Americans) is that it's easy to get to. We flew to Phoenix, AZ and it was an easy 4 hour van ride from there. Our fellow divers were all strangers to my wife and me, but were very nice people! We keep in touch with a few of them. We've been on better boats, but we've been on worse boats, too. The crew members were great. I could work on my Spanish and the crew was very patient with me. I would sign up for their Explore Baja 2-week trip but it's booked up for 2014 and 2015. It's gotta be good if it's that popular!
