Unreal morning out here at Roca Partida with a first dive that put the bar out of reach for the 7 dives that followed. As we kicked along the west wall of the rock we heard constant chatter from the dolphins out in the surrounding blue. We cruised along at 100ft for almost 10 mins […]

Beautiful day at sea today. Sun is shining and there’s no wind to speak of. There are some sizable swells rolling through, but they are long and smooth like glass. We just watched the trip dvd slideshow, and it sure looked like a great trip 🙂 Last night after we pulled anchor we saw a […]

Silky Snorkel last night was a huge success. Punta Tosca is really the hotspot for silky sharks! Last night we had 20-30 sharks circling the boat, and lots of happy snorkelers in the water. The silky snorkel was awesome for sure, but the first dive at Roca Partida today was epic. As soon as divers […]

It was a tough call but we decided to give up our second day at Roca Partida and steamed overnight to Cabo Pearce. The wx was just not cooperating and all forecast options showed a stiffening wind and shortening wave period, so in the end I knew when to fold ’em. First two dives […]

Outro dia no paraiso!

By Nautilus Staff on April 9th, 2016 in Crew, Socorro

Nosso primeiro dia em Roca Partia comecou devagar em termos de vida e rapido em termos de correnteza! Vale ressaltar que Roca esta a aproximadamente 70 milhas nauticas da ilha mais proxima que eh Socorro, que por sua vez esta a mais de 150 milhas de distancia do continente, e isso faz com que as […]

This morning’s wind has died down to 10 knots, and where there were five dive boats yesterday, we find ourselves all alone today. There’s nothing quite like having Roca Partida all to yourself. First dive this morning was with dolphins, sharks, and mantas. Guests are very happy that we stayed a second day, and so […]
