El Duque Adventures – (La Paz)

(5/5) Excelente servicio gran capitán excelente tour se los recomiendo

(5/5) Expérience unique sur le bateau de Catherine er Norm. J'ai adoré dormir à la belle étoile sur le pont supérieur. Une vue imprenable sur la baie, la lune, les étoiles. Au matin, les dauphins nageaient tout proche. Je recommande fortement pour cette aventure qui sort de l'ordinaire!

(5/5) My partner and I stayed on El Duque for a couple of nights to experience a unique type of accomodation. The whole weekend exceeded our expectations from the beautiful surroundings and abundance of life and nature - to the food and wonderful crew who kept us safe and fed. Great value for an unforgettable experience.

(5/5) We went on a whale shark tour with El Duque Adventures and we were blown away by the experience. Their respect and knowledge of the sharks and their habitat made our trip incredibly enjoyable and memorable. They were very friendly and knowledgeable and fun to spend the afternoon with. They made us feel safe and comfortable in the water and with the whale sharks. We can't wait to go back and would love to go diving with them as well. We highly recommend a trip with them!

(5/5) We had such an amazing time with Norman while swimming with Whale Sharks. We had the boat to just our family, making it such a better experience than with 20 other tourists. Our daughter was really afraid to get in the water but Norman talked her into swimming with him and it was the highlight of her trip. We ended up jumping 4 or 5 times. Lunch was fantastic! Highly Recommend El Duque Adventures!

(5/5) I am a new scuba diver and was looking for a place to practice and explore Baja with my new found sport. El Duque Adventures customize a live-aboard vacation for me and my partner. The 3-day 2-night tour was packed full of scuba diving, snorkeling, kayaking, and hiking. Catherine and Norm made me feel comfortable exploring my new found love of diving. I was also amazed at the delicious meals we were served. I can’t wait to go again.

(5/5) We did the whale shark swimming adventure with Cat and can highly recommend it! We had a great time. The tour is well organized and the equipment excellent. We would definitely do a tour with El Duque again :)!

(5/5) We had three weeks with Cat and Norm on their boat El Duque in February. Wow what a way to avoid the dreary weather in the UK! Sunshine every day and a complete lifestyle change. We stayed on the boat for the whole holiday with an eight day trip out to visit the beautiful islands and coastline just north of La Paz. Norm found great anchorages each night in sheltered bays of golden sands and no people, only birds and dolphins! We are not divers so did not use the facilities for diving that are available on the boat but did enjoy kayaking and learning how to snorkel. The panga trip around the mangrove lagoon was amazing with clear shallow water bringing you close up to fish and birdlife. On our return to base at the marina in La Paz Cat and Norm came up with some great ideas for trips inland to a beautiful waterfall 12 metres high with a pool to swim in beneath and hot water springs where the water temperature really was like a hot bath! We had a great day out whale watching at Magdalena Bay where grey whales spend the winter months giving birth to their babies. Another day was watching whale sharks feeding just below the water just inches away from the boat - fortunately they eat plankton not people! Cat served up some delicious meals from her compact kitchen and ensured we had plenty to eat and drink each day. If you want a holiday that is really different with friendly knowledgeable people in spectacular scenery without spending a fortune I can thoroughly recommend El Duque Adventures!
