Sea of Cortez Liveaboard Trip

QUICK DETAILS

Dates: July 2 - 10, 2028

Duration: 8 nights

Accommodation:  Belle Amie Liveaboard

Join Chris and Mariah for this 8-day trip to the Sea of Cortez. Located outside of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, and hosting some of the Pacific’s most exciting animals, the Sea of Cortez is a must for divers and non-divers alike.

Being one of the only boats in the area means whale shark encounters are very different than other destinations. These whale sharks are often quite friendly and frequently interact with divers (sometimes 80–200 whale sharks per trip).

Marine Life Highlights

Whale Sharks
Frequent, close interactions.
