Socorro Island (or to be more correct, the Revillagigedo
Archipelago) is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to an
extraordinary population of giant manta rays (Mobula birostris)
and bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus), that are usually as
friendly and interactive as puppies. 45 years ago, these gorgeous
mantas appeared on our first Baja Expedition to Socorro and from
the beginning sought out unique and intimate interaction with
divers that continues to this day. The icing on the cake? More than
10+ species of sharks, turtles, huge schools of jacks, tuna, and, in
season, humpbacks, pilot whales and even schooling silky sharks.
