DFAC has been invited to join our good friend Dano Krahling of MAKO Spearguns in LaPaz next June 2023. Explore Espiritu Santo island, El Bajo and other structures for Amberjack, Wahoo, Tuna and various pelagic and reef fish. There will be most likely a trip to the pacific side for various pelagic fish on one of our dive days.Our guide Patrick Papp of Baja Adventure Co is very familiar with this area for spearfishing.
As the divers spend 4 days of spearfishing, 70% of their catch that is harvested is donated to the local orphanage in LaPaz. The balance of the harvested fish is used to supplement dinners for the team and then participants are also encouraged to take the remaining fish back to share with their own families and friends.
Diving For A Cause is welcomed with many opportunities of giving back to the local community. This recipe of spearfishing and giving back has been successful with DFAC and we have no doubt that it will be here as well.
This is a very generous subsidized week of 6 days and 5 nights with 4 full days of spearfishing, lodging and meals for $1900 for a team of 8 participants. Our departure day June 27, we will visit the school in the morning.So plan your departure flight on June 27, for after 2 pm please.

Refund Policy
I understand that Diving For A Cause will incur costs associated with boats, meals, and other accommodations to facilitate my participation in this event.I understand that DFAC will provide reimbursement if participant notifies the organization 60 days before the departure date of the trip, so there is sufficient time to find a replacement. Less than 60 days, unless DFAC can find a replacement for the participant, refund will be negotiated based on the costs already paid to lodging and boats.
