GoPro and Dive With Buddy Partner to Launch GoPro Escapes Booking Platform

SAN MATEO, Calif., and LA PAZ, Mexico, May 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- GoPro, Inc. (NASDAQ: GPRO) and Dive with Buddy, Inc. today announced the launch of GoPro Escapes—a new collection of exclusive, creator-led group dive travel experiences now available for online booking at BookWithBuddy.com and on the Buddy mobile app. 

GoPro Escapes are curated multi-day dive trips hosted by GoPro Athletes, underwater storytellers, and professional dive guides in top global destinations chosen for marine life, visibility, and adventure. Each escape offers small-group experiences of 10–40 guests, with comprehensive packages covering accommodations, guided dives, workshops, and the signature GoPro experience.

The launch marks the next chapter of GoPro Escapes, bringing together world-class diving, storytelling, and adventure travel in one centralized destination. Through Dive with Buddy, the global dive community can now discover and reserve official GoPro Escapes experiences—from liveaboards in remote destinations to curated dive expeditions designed for creators and explorers.

The first wave of GoPro Escapes launches across the Americas and Asia-Pacific, with trips expected in Cozumel, Hawaii, Fiji, Raja Ampat, the Maldives, Malaysia, and other premier dive destinations throughout 2026. 

Whether participants are divers, creators, or adventurers looking to capture unforgettable underwater moments, GoPro Escapes are now easier to find and book than ever before. Divers can browse every upcoming GoPro Escape on a dedicated landing page at BookWithBuddy.com, or discover and book them through the Buddy app—where they can also find other dive trips, tours, and courses, and connect with fellow dive buddies worldwide.

"GoPro Escapes bring together adventure, creativity, and community in some of the most incredible underwater locations in the world. Partnering with Dive with Buddy gives our global dive community a simple, dedicated place to discover these experiences, connect with one another, and turn their dives into powerful stories," said Rick Loughery, GoPro's SVP of Global Marketing and Digital Commerce.

All GoPro Escapes live at bookwithbuddy.com/gopro-escapes. Dive shops and operators—including existing GoPro retailers—can now list their multi-day trips as GoPro Escapes by registering at business.bookwithbuddy.com/register. Once approved by GoPro, operators can publish GoPro Escapes with branded booking pages on Buddy's platform.

GoPro Escapes was created to unite diving, storytelling, and adventure travel. Each experience gives participants the opportunity to explore extraordinary underwater destinations while learning how to capture their dives using GoPro cameras.

Together, GoPro and Dive with Buddy are combining storytelling, adventure, and community into a dedicated platform built for divers worldwide. Each GoPro Escapes experience is built around three core pillars:

• Adventure: Explore some of the most extraordinary underwater environments on the planet.
• Storytelling: Learn how to capture cinematic underwater footage using GoPro cameras, mounts, and creative techniques.
• Community: Dive alongside creators, explorers, and storytellers who share a passion for the ocean.

"At Buddy, we want to offer our community a variety of curated trips and experiences where they can meet new buddies and share their love for the ocean. GoPro was the perfect partner for that—they bring the same passion for adventure and storytelling that our community lives and breathes," said Alexis Jabbour, CEO and Founder of Dive with Buddy. "For divers, this means you can discover and book incredible GoPro-curated trips in one place. For dive shops, this is a new way to grow your business with the backing of one of the most recognized brands in adventure."
