Perfect tour - Fantastic trip for family of 5. Friendly and capable captain Charlie and knowledgeable and experienced guide, Alex. Great tour of islands, birds, goats, sea lions, flying fish, and whales, and a wonderful lunch on gorgeous beach. Comfortable and clean boat and snorkeling equipment. Couldn’t have asked for more.

A memorable experience with excellent hosts - Miguel and Charlie delivered a memorable experience for us, one that we would gladly repeat the next time we are in BCS. Swimming with the baby sea lions is an exceptional activity - most everyone describes it, correctly, as playing with puppy dogs who are curious, friendly, and like to nibble. But it's also the boat ride there and back, with the various spots to take in the local wildlife like migrant blue footed boobies that are so hard to see outside of Galapagos, the frigate nesting colony, the magnificent rock formations that protrude all along Espiritu Santo island, that make it into a very relaxing as well as exciting seven hour trip. Topped off by a tasty ceviche picnic at your own secluded small cove - set up with beach chairs and umbrellas. Will remember this one for a long time.

Highly recommend - We had such an amazing time. Miguel the owner and Charlie the boat captain were so accommodating. The customer service was excellent. They were both very knowledgeable of the area. Honestly, I cannot recommend this company enough. Spanish and english was spoken very well. We were so happy with the service that we went a second day with them for fishing. The bites were great. The ride out to the location was breathe taking. They took us through a nice chain of islands and throughout the boatride we saw so much wildlife. I have never seen such diversification of wildlife in one place. We saw sea lions, multiple types of dolphin, rays, silky sharks, marlin, huge snappers, mahi, tuna, etc. They also provided snacks, drinks, and a lunch which was perfect. The best is how enthusiastic they both were about the entire experience. We left with new friendships! A big thank you to UP Dive and we will be back!

The best bespoke boat trip from La Paz - I spent hours scouring TripAdvisor and instagram for a tour with a nice boat that wasn’t one of those cheap ones ooden panga boats where everyone had to wear a life vest. Miguel was so quick to reply to all my questions in WhatsApp and even sent me maps with circles to show exactly where we would go to beat the crowds. He also let us bring our own bottles of wine and mezcal onboard. The tour was absolutely wonderful. We loved everything start to finish. Miguel and Regina are the friendliest and the most professional tour guides you could hope for. We were shown many unique nature spots and habitats of native animals including blue footed boobies and sea lions. Miguel studied marine biology and shared a lot of information and many interesting facts about local wildlife. He is a great captain, and though the ocean wasn’t smooth at times, we were always very comfortable. We got to snorkel really close to sea lions, and that was incredible. Regina was in the water with us keeping her eyes on the behavior of the animals, and making sure we are as close as we can get without disturbing them. We anchored at a stunning beach, with crystal clear water and white sand. It was just as clear as Maldives. We brought some drinks and Regina was very attentive making sure we always had one in our hands, paying close attention to how we prepared them so she could recreate for us later. They served the most delicious fish ceviche, we cruised around some more enjoying the stunning rock formations on the islands, and we experienced an absolutely magical sunset on our way back. 10 out of 10!

Wonderful! - I had never visited La Paz, and doing so with the Up Dive crew highlighted the experience. All the time they were attentive and willing to explain the landscapes and the nature of the places.
