My family and I had a wonderful diving and snorkeling trip with Rafel and crew. We explored the clear blue waters of the Sea of Cortez off the island of Coronado near the town of Loreto, Mexico. Whether you are snorkeling or diving or just sight seeing the sea and land have a multitude of life to watch and enjoy.... More

This was my first trip to Loreto. Two years earlier I had been a part of a dive trip to La Paz and fell in love with the Sea of Cortez diving. One of the divers on the trip said if I enjoyed La Paz , I really should visit Loreto. It was on my mind for over a year... More

Rafael, our divemaster is one of the best I've been with in more than 20 years of diving. Patient, calm, kind and knowledgeable, he only worries about the comfort and enjoyment of his divers. This is our first time in Loreto and must say that EVERYTHING people say about him is TRUE and more. A native of the area, his... More

My wife worked on a dive boat as a "galley girl" for a few year in Santa Barbara. After we married, she hadn't gone scuba for about 10 years. Rafeal at DDC took care of her and she had a wonderful time. I floated on the surface snorkeling and found it great. Rafeal was great and we recommend him 1000%.... More

Dolphin Dive Center – Loreto Mexico After 3 months of planning the dive trip to Loreto Mexico we finally arrived on a HOT and very sunny Friday afternoon in the small quaint town of Loreto Baja, California. A brief taxi ride ($ 7.00 US one way) gets you into town in about 10-15 minutes. We were dropped off at our... More

I have been diving with Dolphin Dive Center for six years, at least twice a year with a total of 10-20 dives each time. I keep returning because of the professionalism of the staff, particularly Rafael, the divemaster, who knows the Sea of Cortez extremely well, as well as for the rich diving opportunities in the area. I highly recommend... More
