Shaped like a missile, Shortfin Mako sharks are the fastest shark in the world, capable of reaching speeds of up to 40mph. Makos may not be as big as great white sharks, but they can still grow up to a sizable 4.5 meters.

Take a deep breath. Jump in the water. Open Your Eyes. Here they are, before you. Hundreds of Mobula rays elegantly flapping their wings and swimming alongside each other in mesmerizing circles. These rays aren’t just a treasure to see underwater, they’re also quite the aerobatic performers…

By Nautilus Guests on July 23rd, 2018 in Citizen Science, Guests, Socorro

I worked with giant manta identification to differentiate each individual, and thus evaluate their population. 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.

Wonderful trip. I’ve heard about the nice fish life in the Socorro area, but this exceeded my expectations. First day at the Boiler, we were greeted by giant mantas. They circled us multiple times until we had to start back to the boat. There was also lobster, octopus, and smaller fish too. Roca Partida – […]
