About VISION

The West Coast's premier multi-day dive vessel

The Vision Expeditions Vessel

The Vessel

VISION is an 88' × 27' purpose-built liveaboard expedition vessel, serving Southern California divers since 1985. From the keel up, she''s designed to deliver more time on the water—stable in open seas, generous in deck space, and comfortable below.

Operating from H&M Landing in San Diego''s Shelter Island District, VISION is positioned to reach the West Coast''s most iconic offshore dive destinations: the Channel Islands, San Clemente, Cortes and Tanner Banks, and—conditions permitting—the Baja Peninsula and Sea of Cortez.
