About Us

Born in Puerto Rico. Made for the ocean.

BlueKings shows people the ocean the way we see it: alive, wild and worth protecting.

Our captain

Giovanni Guzman

Giovanni is a marine biologist with a Bachelor of Science in Marine Geology from the University of Puerto Rico at Mayagüez and a Master of Science from James Cook University, Australia, one of the best schools in the world for marine biology.

Having grown up in Puerto Rico, he has more than 15 years of underwater experience, from the Great Barrier Reef and the Galápagos to the Maldives, Costa Rica and Mexico. He is an environmentalist, ocean advocate, freediver, content creator and photographer, with one main goal: to change the misconceptions people have about marine life, especially sharks.

Our mission

Get people in the water, with respect.

Puerto Rico is world famous for its beaches, but little is known about the marine life that surrounds us. Our mission is for people to enter the sea and respectfully interact with that life, and to show that our waters are as rich as many of the best diving spots in the world.

The same idea takes us around the planet: small groups, local captains, ethical encounters and moments that change the way you see the ocean.

World Cat 280CC-X

Our Puerto Rico adventures start on a brand new World Cat 280CC-X, a 28 ft luxury console catamaran for smooth rides, stability and comfort. It meets all coast guard regulations and safety requirements, with plenty of space and easy access to the water.

Why BlueKings

Why go with us?

We don't sell trips from a catalog. We lead every expedition ourselves, in places we know, with people who love the ocean as much as we do.

Led by a marine biologistEvery trip is guided by our founder, a marine biologist with more than 15 years in the water. You don't just see the animals, you understand them.
Small groups, real time in the waterWe keep our groups small so everyone gets in the water at the same time. No crowds, no waiting on the boat.
Private boat experienceOther companies put you on boats with many more people. Not us: the boat is only for our group.
Local experts onlyWe work hand in hand with local captains and guides in every destination. We only support local tourism.
Ethical encountersWe never force an interaction. We respect the animals' space and always let them decide how close they want to be.
Get all the contentWe film and photograph every encounter, and the whole group gets all of it. You just enjoy the moment.
