The Rocio del Mar, at 110 feet in length, is a comfortable liveaboard that can take 20 passengers to the famous dive sites in the Sea of Cortez, the Socorro Islands, and Baja California . Each room has its own air conditioning, carpet, window, closet, and en-suite bathroom. Vegan dishes and outdoor seating are both accessible. The sundeck/top deck or the upper deck salon are two of the most popular places on the yacht to unwind.

The diving off the coast of Mexico's Rocio Del Mar is fantastic. The Revillagigedo Islands, of which Socorro Island is a part, are commonly referred to as Mexico's "Little Galapagos." San Benedicto, Socorro, Roca Partida, and Clarion Islands are all on the diving schedule. Megafauna as fascinating as tiger sharks, dolphins, silky sharks, Galapagos sharks, schools of jacks and barracuda, tuna, wahoo, oceanic white tipped sharks, whale sharks, and manta rays may all be seen here. All dives are guided by professional divemasters who are excited to show you their underwater world.

There is plenty of room on Rocio Del Mar's dive deck to keep all of your diving equipment, and the boat also offers a camera table for any photographers on board.
