How many Manta’s did I see at the Boiler is an unfair question. The amount of excitement cannot be described in the number of manta’s but in the grace and beauty of these animals as they spin and dance right in front of you. As I giant Stride into the water, a pinnacle of rock […]

The trip was booked almost a year previous and the anticipation has been overwhelming waiting for the 13th of May to Arrive. I cannot even begin to express the amount of gratitude that I have for each and every member of the Nautilus Team. I am an Avid diver who has the pleasure of diving […]

I know the ocean's not a zoo, but it totally seems like one with the boat spotting mantas on every dive

We asked our guests what they thought of their diving, and got a wide range of awesome, funny and weird encounters! Took a break from the cervezas long enough to get wet. Happily rewarded almost immediately upon descent by a sailfish. Hard to say how large it was as it was at a distance, but […]

Roca Portida Today we arrived at the volcanic island that peaks its head out of the ocean surface and is home to many boobies. The island looks like its snowed, but it’s the boobies toilet break. Before we dived in we had a wonderful whale shark show up on the stern surface which was nice […]

Day 1: Canyon and boiler Today was day 1 of diving, with check out dive completed, we drop into the boiler. To say we were tantalised before we even got into the water is an understatement. Just as we were getting ready to enter the water, we were treated with a whale shark at the […]

We have reached the final leg of our journey on The Nautilus at Roca Partida and have not been disappointed. Our first dive at 7am, calm seas and a clear blue ocean. We dropped in and were lucky enough to have some hammerheads, a family of white-tips, some sleeping in their cave. We returned for […]

Best day yet! Old man was cool but Roca O’Neil was super cool. Did the caverns and had lobsters climbing the ceiling—it was like some alien, arachnid, take-over-the-world movie! Once we stirred them a bit they scurried all over. Surreal and creepy all at the same time. Befriended a Manta that would have followed us […]
