Nautilus LiveaboardsThe diving sites are diverse and uniquely exceptional. The sharks and Mantas were at the majority of the sites and in abundance. Dolphins come very close to engage in some fun. I was taken aback by the Manta; had not realised they had self-awareness. That is a unique experience.

Read MoreExceeds all expectations – from the detailed, friendly service, to the outstanding food, and off the chart diving. Animals I’ve had close encounters with: Mantas, bottlenose dolphins, several schools of hammerhead sharks, Galapagos sharks, and even a tiger shark. Dive team is incredible. A fantastic trip – thank you for making it so incredible.

Read MoreFantastic diving and accommodations. Two bucket-list diving items for me: Giant Mantas and schooling hammerheads. I can check those off my list now, along with playful dolphins, which I didn’t expect. The crew is amazing and obviously work so hard while making it seem effortless – they were always friendly and helpful and must enjoy their jobs.

Read MoreThe Captain and crew did their best to make my diving experience safe and enjoyable. After getting out of the water from an exciting dive, a hostess was waiting for us with either hot tea, hot chocolate and a towel to dry off. Dive Masters were great in explaining the dive site and taking us to areas that had lots of life. Food was also great. A very comfortable boat and lots of fire safety features and a night watchman while we slept.

A real festival for the eyes.
I recommend 100%! I am already in a hurry to go again and this time dive Guadalupe with the great whites.

Read MoreIt’s my 2nd trip to Socorro after 10 years. Happy to tell that fish life has come back. It’s a pleasure to see once in my 32 years diving career great improvement under the sea. I’m so happy to have seen lot of juvenile Silver Tipped Sharks and like 4 times more Mantas than in my first trip to the Islands. Certainly also the positive effect of the Islands being UNESCO World Heritage site since 2016.

Read MoreFrom the moment we boarded and began our trip, we sensed a genuine caring and concern, not only for our safety but also for our overall happiness. It is only our second day of diving, with six more days to go ~ and I am already perfectly content having checked off my list of close encounters with mantas and so many playful dolphins ~ all within just a few feet of us!
