点评:I highly recommend diving with Buceo Huatulco. We saw great wildlife, including an incredible number of rays. We learned a lot from our dive guides, who are local marine biologists. Plus, the service was excellent.
Buceo Huatulco made diving convenient, with transportation, equipment rentals, and all the marina and boat fees rolled up into one cost for us. We wanted to dive for two days during a longer trip throughout Oaxaca, so we didn’t have all our gear with us. The BCDs and regulators we received were in great shape.
We dove four dives with Virgilio, with Cathy supporting us from the boat, which has ample cover for shade. Virgilio is an excellent dive guide. He’s friendly, chill, and supportive. He only takes small groups (five people max) and can accommodate different dive-skill levels. We are PADI Rescue divers with hundreds of dives, and we were very satisfied on a dive with divers with less experience due to Virgilio’s ability to manage that.
He also knows where to dive on any given day. The bahias are sandy bays so visibility can vary. Highlights of our dives included:
* many, many rays -- more than I have ever seen on one dive
* a guitarfish, who we learned from Cathy and Virgilio is actually a ray.
* many different kinds of starfish -- all sorts of colors
* shoaling fish, large-banded blennies, hawksbill turtle, triggerfish, pufferfish, brilliant blue damselfish
* plentiful coral coverage that looked healthy (can’t take that for granted these days)
Virgilio and Cathy are both marine biologists and local to the area. Virgilio has co-authored research papers about scientific diving and the health of local coral, and Cathy is working on her thesis on sea turtles. Needless to say, we learned a lot about the marine ecology of Bahias de Huatulco and got great food and beach recommendations. We also had lunch with them (not as part of the tour), and they took us to some great places with fresher-than-fresh seafood. We wouldn’t have found these places on our own.
As we’ve come to expect on our many trips to Mexico, the people are everything. And the people at Buceo Huatulco are no exception. They love Huatulco. They love the oceans and they love marine biology. That passion came through in our experience with them. If you are a diver in the area, don’t miss Buceo Huatulco.
翻译:我强烈推荐与 Buceo Huatulco 一起潜水。我们看到了很棒的野生动物,包括数量惊人的鳐鱼。我们从当地的海洋生物学家潜水导游那里学到了很多东西。另外,服务非常好。
Buceo Huatulco 让潜水变得很方便,交通、设备租赁以及所有码头和船费对我们来说都算一笔费用。我们想在整个瓦哈卡州的长途旅行中潜水两天,所以我们没有带上所有装备。我们收到的 BCD 和调节器状况良好。
我们和 Virgilio 一起潜水了四次,Cathy 在船上支持我们,船上有足够的遮荫处。 Virgilio 是一位出色的潜水向导。他很友善、冷静且乐于助人。他只接待小团体(最多五人),并且可以适应不同的潜水技能水平。我们是 PADI 救援潜水员,拥有数百次潜水经验,由于 Virgilio 的管理能力,我们对与经验较少的潜水员一起潜水感到非常满意。
他还知道每天去哪里潜水。巴伊亚是沙湾,因此能见度可能会有所不同。我们潜水的亮点包括:
* 很多很多的射线——比我在一次潜水中见过的还要多
*我们从Cathy和Virgilio那里了解到的吉他鱼实际上是一种鳐鱼。
*许多不同种类的海星——各种颜色
* 浅水鱼、大带鲳鱼、玳瑁、炮弹鱼、河豚、亮蓝雀鲷
* 大量的珊瑚覆盖,看起来很健康(现在不能认为这是理所当然的)
Virgilio 和 Cathy 都是海洋生物学家,也是该地区的当地人。 Virgilio 与人合着了有关科学潜水和当地珊瑚健康的研究论文,Cathy 正在撰写有关海龟的论文。不用说,我们了解了很多关于巴伊亚斯德瓦图尔科的海洋生态的知识,并得到了很棒的食物和海滩推荐。我们还和他们一起吃了午餐(不是旅行的一部分),他们带我们去了一些比新鲜海鲜更新鲜的好地方。我们自己不会找到这些地方。
正如我们在多次墨西哥之旅中所期待的那样,人民就是一切。 Buceo Huatulco 的员工也不例外。他们喜欢瓦图尔科。他们热爱海洋,热爱海洋生物学。这种热情体现在我们与他们相处的经历中。如果您是该地区的潜水爱好者,请不要错过 Buceo Huatulco。
