50+ sharks at The Rock

By Nautilus Staff on January 16th, 2018 in Crew, Socorro

Challenging conditions at Roca Partida put our skills to test. We jumped in visibility was good and current was strong. Lots of action around the northern tip of “the rock”. When rifting south we have seen so many sharks, at least 50 plus. Crazy to see a huge number of sharks and all of a […]

Another warm, lovely day at Roca Partida, the dive site that never disappoints. Over the course of the whole day we have been seeing lots of hammerheads, mobula rays, mantas, silvertip sharks, whitetip sharks, silky sharks and Galapagos sharks. With a mild current it was easy diving most of the day and everybody enjoyed it. […]

Is this the end of it already?? We got through the last day of diving, but it was so intense that time just flew. Today is the last day in the ‘boyler’, dolphins were hanging out at the point from the sunrise and waited there for the length of 2 dives, but not just that. […]

We left these dive sites 5 months ago and ever since I have been counting the days until I would come back to this magical place: the boiler, Roca Partida, Cabo Pearce, Punta Tosca…I have dived many other places in the world, but […]

As a divemaster when you do this job you somehow get less impressed little by little, and unbelievable things must happen to get you amazed and make you feel lucky and more than anything grateful. You stop perceiving the reality and live in a dreamy world beneath the surface and you think it is normal. […]

Weekly news from the Revillagigedo… We dived the first day at San Benedicto island and had a couple of encounters with hammerhead sharks and manta rays. Second day at Socorro, dolphins played with us and we interacted with some giant friendly mantas. But all this was just a warm up… Day 3 and 4 we […]
