For this experience, private is the way to go... Capt. Angel made the travel bearable and David was very knowledgeable. Had a great time even with the elevated winds.
Excellent adventure.

Miguel and Up Dive did an unbelievable job taking us out swim with the sea lions. Miguel being a Marine Biologist was an extra bonus as he highlighted many aspects of the sea life and terrain. Miguel and Captain Charlie most hospitable and knowledgeable hosts- their homage ceviche quite tasty as well. If you plan on visiting the sea lions look no further than UpDive
UPDIVE the Best!

Wonderful experience. Boat trip was nice & Sea lions were so playful & fun. Great site seeing - not a birder but loads of interesting birds along the way also saw a HUGE pod of dolphins with babies. Warm & clear water. Snorkel Equipment & lunch was good - Captain Charlie & Miguel were superb - Miguel is also a marine biologist which was extra special - UPDive was a great choice for our adventure. Perfect day!
Wonderful!

The tour was great! We visited Balandra, which is truly a paradise, and we also had the chance to snorkel at a couple of beautiful reefs. Dani, the guide, is very knowledgeable about the region’s marine biology and is very friendly. Charly, the captain, was also very kind
