Comments  
excellent organization; divemaster/guide julio knew the area dive sites and
pretty much left us alone to do our thing; diving was very relaxed and
while not "adreneline" diving, was very comfortable; lots of
schools of tropicals; huge bumpnose parrots; cabo pulmo by far the best
diving and viz; trip cut short by hurricane marty; overall the dive shop
personnel and divemasters/crew very knowledgable, accomodating; usual sea
lions not present, probably due to oncoming marty; have dove with amigos
del mar over the years and am very comfortable with their operations
