We had around 10 sharks with us, two of which were large heavily pregnant females around 8ft long! We also saw a school of squid and the silky sharks hunting small baitfish! At one point I saw a silky actually catch a fish! I felt a bit sad for the little guy but it was a pretty incredible spectacle of nature to behold!

By Nautilus Guests on June 6th, 2018 in Guests, Socorro

The Dive Masters knowledge of all sites (Coeoiats Cannon, Roca Partida, Punta Tosca, The Boiler and Fondeadero) was invaluable. We were split into 3 dive teams that the dive masters rotated between all groups allowing them to get to know their guests on a one-to-one basis and not just by sight on the boat.

Comecamos muito bem este segundo dia de mergulho. Logo que estabilizamos a profundidade, vimos as pequeñas covas cheias de White tip sharks descansando. Ao sairmos navegando, o primeiro encontro com Whale shark. Logo em seguida, um imenso cardume com galapagos sharks, dusk sharks, hammerhead sharks, silver tips… wonderful! – Fernando Avellar, Brasil

Back to Roca Partida, our church. Today looking beautiful, with calm seas, and for first time coming to this great place, we dove with no current at all. Super amazing clear waters, lots of life, tunas, Galapagos, mantas, and incredible mobulas following the mantas, and Dusky sharks. We still don’t see the hammer heads, hoping […]

Roca Partida: Day 2 Nautilus Under the Sea and its crew were fantastic at accommodating our party of rEvo closed-circuit rebreathers (they were able to provide complete rental tanks and absorbent, too!). The staff has experience with rebreathers, and knowing the advantage of silent diving, offered to drop us in as the first divers of […]

  Roca Partida woke up this afternoon!  Along with some lively action on the surface was some equally live action below with sharks of all kinds lurking about.  Duskies, Silkies, Galapagos, White tips, Silver tips and Hammerheads were converging on the Rock today in a shark convention it seemed.  While the Nautilus held fast in […]
