Best ever diving on the Nautilus UnderSea

On almost every dive, we encountered friendly giants mantas, massive tunas, and on 3 dives, the biggest fish of the ocean: a whale shark. Some of us were lucky enough to witness the few hours before birth of a baby dolphin, a couple of divers got the privilege to see the healthy baby 4 days later.

But as they approached the boat we realized they were not actually the bottlenoses we’d seen a lot. We then realized they were false killer whales! I was incredibly exciting when 15-20 of them decided to stick around. We even saw two of them head-butting!

The diving just keeps on getting better on this trip. Just dove Roca Partida. The best way to describe it was I thought I was filming BBC’s Blue Planet. Giant and I mean HUGE tuna, rivers of jacks, bait balls forming, Galapagos sharks and white tips, tuna and jacks all interacting. Schools of white tips cruising around. Fantastic visibility, it was crazy good from start to finish!

Dive Day 2-3 get even better at Roca Partida, 3 different Whale Sharks altogether, Silkies, Hammers, crazy Mantas and Mobula actions and amazing time with Tunas, will this get better? I hope so, as the only missing thing on my list is Tiger Shark and Dolphins now.

I have done many night dives, but the silky snorkel beat any night dives I’ve done. All too often, night dives end up as a search for something interesting. Much time can be spent before some highlight can be seen. But the silky snorkel was completely different.

The Silky Snorkel was a lifetime experience. Almost peed my pants twice, but it was worth it and I felt absolutely safe. You never come as close as during the night time.

I’ve been diving 30+ years and this was probably one of the best dives I’ve ever done. Pods of a dozen dolphins, playing and entertaining us. Some many close encounters. And if that wasn’t enough, 4-5 Giant Mantas just circling us.
