Heading to Cabo
Now, THAT'S a scary city! Half of the stores there are farmacias selling viagra or massage parlors that will help you take care of that viagra.
 
Fantastic pics - looks like you had amazing interactions with the dolphins. This is a trip I need to do. How warm is the water this time of year/what type of exposure suit is needed?
Water Temps between 75 and 78 degrees F
 
We have been on the Explorer to Socorro and Belle Amie to Guadalupe. While we enjoyed both a lot, the Belle Amie is newer and a bit nicer. The crew on both were exceptional, and I would go on either boat again (or both)!
 
Cool pictures. Heading to Cabo tomorrow to get on the SolmarV. Really looking forward to it!
I have done two trips on the Solmar V in 2008 (Isla Guadeloupe and then Socorro 6 weeks later). She is a beautiful boat, but the cabins re-define the word tiny!

I agree. I had one of the single cabins & I only had room to stand. The bed was 1/2 a twin sized mattress,...needless to say, being very near the bow & the waters were rough,... I took a beating. While sparse on creature comforts,.. the dive facilities & staff were top notch!
 
Water temps this week were in the Low to mid 70's. Unfortunately, I had to sit out the last dive,... between the biting wind & cool waters,... I was becoming very hypothermic & exhausted. Fortunately I have learned to listen to my body & it's status. I also had to battle Mal de Mar, most of the trip, as the waters were quite rough.
