I am still in awe of the trip we had- I was so looking forward to it, but it was even more magical than I could have imagined! Joe, Lara, and Gildas made this so special for me and my daughter- it was the kind of bonding with your teenager you can only dream of haha. They helped me every step of the way while getting her certified and making sure our experience was seamless (and I didn't have to plan a thing!). We got to see so much wildlife, and they really took time to talk to my daughter about all the animals- and engaged with her interest in biology. And not to mention the amazing experience with whale sharks, mantas, octopus, and so many more cool sights!

I had a fantastic time going to Galapagos with Blue Mind Joe! Spent a few days in Quito, Ecuador first which were tremendous, everything was planned out and taken care of. Went and did many great attractions, and the liveaboard and diving were incredible! All around, it was a stellar experience!

Incredible trip! The diving was world class. The boat and the help were first class. Jor did a great job of coordinating and hosting the trip. Also got to meet some new local diver friends which is always a blast...

I wanted one more short diving trip before heading north for the summer. Joe delivered. He set up the lodging and the dives from Dixie Divers. He dove with me six times, including the final dive for me to get my PADI deep dive certification. I recommend using Joe if you want to dive in the Fort Lauderdale area. I also recommend taking one of the dive trips he organizes.

Great trip, great people, and great host. Communication leading up to the dive was clear and thorough, which made committing to the trip an easy choice even with my otherwise hectic schedule. Joe was exceptional, professional, composed, and effortlessly reassuring. As this was only my fourth dive, I had some nerves going in, but his calm confidence quickly put me at ease and helped me fully enjoy the experience. I’m already looking forward to my next dives and making scuba a bigger part of my life. I still catch myself daydreaming about swimming with the sharks, it’s something I won’t forget anytime soon 🦈
