A true exploratory trip with the Nautilus Explorer into Magdalena Bay. It was the trip of not only the sea lions, dolphins and Marlins but also wrecks, a seamount and kelp forest diving.

Listo, listo, listo….go go go. The first time you hear that the adrenaline surges, your fins are hanging over the edge of the boat and you splash. It could be a school of mobulas, marlins, sea lions or who knows.

The Sea of Cortez trip is impressive as you spend time up close with nature in a healthy marine environment. Sea Lions, Hammerhead Sharks, Moray Eels, and an abundance of tropical fish make it a special experience for all diver.

Hello,
This is my first liveaboard after Socorro (Mexico) last February, and so far I’m pleasantly surprised. Socorro was amazing, next level diving but cold and a long boat-trip. The water this trip was so warm. I only dove in a rash-guard suit. Then the Action underwater did not let us down, sea lions (especially pups) almost every dive coming to say hi and giving us little acrobatic shows.

There were barracudas everywhere, and they were with us for over 30 minutes they wouldn’t leave us alone! There was lots of Triggerfish underneath them nesting, and they were going crazy. Then we moved on a little bit, and Faith nearly sat on a turtle, and I had to bundle her out the way. He […]

I was fortunate enough to be with a great group of people onboard the Gallant Lady for my 100 dive. The dive was amazing; many sea lions, cleaning stations, many fish.

Our first day of the trip on the Sea of Cortez was perfect. We saw big lobsters, lots of moray eels (some of them really big), lots of starfish of many colours and sizes. Especially we liked the rocks covered by colourful coral.
