Read MoreThe grey shape of a Great White, a male about 12’ in length, emerged under the bait line. It grew deceptively quickly in size and definition until the length of the shark breached the surface, jaws convulsing after the elusive bait, and then with a splash was gone again to the water.
Read MoreI set my alarm for 6 am and almost considered going back to sleep, but I just couldn’t stand the excitement! I headed outside and I immediately saw sharks and couldn’t turn away for even a second! The day was amazing. The sharks gave all of us a show on the surface and in the deep cages, and we couldn’t get enough! The crew was so amazingly helpful at spotting, wrangling, and helping us do what feels most comfortable and exciting.

This helps to obtain important information including how many individuals are in the biosphere reserve, how many mantas are present every season and if there are new mantas every season. It also includes which islands attract more mantas, how many females and males are there, and how the mantas move between the islands.
Read MoreOne of the first things the divemasters told us was, “This is a weird choice for a honeymoon.” However, my wife and I have had such a relaxing, yet exhilarating experience aboard the Nautilus UnderSea. Guadalupe Island has been such a nice getaway and the crew has provided a fun and safe environment for us. We love having the freedom to dive whenever we want to see the great white sharks up close. Seeing one in person is an experience we highly recommend to everyone, especially doing it with Nautilus Liveaboards.

Seriously though, we have dived all over the world and have never met mantas so curious and friendly.
Read MoreToday we experienced three types of manta encounters, five different sharks and a pod of false killer whales. You owe it to yourself to take this magical voyage into the rarely-visited part of our world. Leave your cell phone, hang up on the internet, kiss the modern world behind and discover the wonders of the deep.
