Trip: Expedition - Epic Overnight aboard the Truth
Guide:
Once in a lifetime experience!!! The crew (John, Randy, Beth, Jake, Bryson, Savannah and Max) were all amazing hosts and guides. They have thought of everything to make this a truly unique and memorable experience. The food was incredible, the activities and tours were fun and beautiful, and the Channel Islands and it's wildlife make you feel like you're in a different world. Hand's down, this was one of the best trips we have ever taken!!

Amazing trip! Enjoyed such a beautiful day with great sunshine and live dolphin show. The crew was awesome while guiding us and keeping us safe. They were knowledgeable sharing their passion about wild life and Anacapa Island. I will definitely need to come back to explore more of the Channel Islands! Definitely recommend!

Trip: SCUBA - Big Sur 5-Day - Vision
Guide: Troy H.
I had a wonderful trip! The boat was safe, with lots of space, great food, a supportive crew, and unforgettable dives; we got lucky with lovely weather on the Big Sur Coast and saw sea life beyond my expectations. I was the most junior diver on the trip and felt supported by other divers and the crew. Overall, I had the trip of a lifetime and enjoyed all the moments, from Monterey to Morro Bay. I can't thank the Channel Island Ex. team and company enough. I look forward to a future trip.
