For the first time, I had the great possibility to be on this trip to Socorro, and for the first step on the boat, I had the most amazing feeling that this trip will be incredible.

We got underway right after dive 4 and ran south to Cabo Peace and anchored up around 2230. The day has been windy, but surface conditions still feel mild compared with yesterday. And the dives have been great. Divers so far have seen hammerheads, five mantas, and just on dive two, we had a group of dolphins cruise past some of the divers. There was a group of about 30 bottlenoses playing in the bay after divers got out and lots of the guests were able to see them from the skiffs. The current was nil on dive one but began to pick up on dive two. We have one more dive scheduled for the afternoon and then we will get underway for the navy check-in. Silky snorkel after dinner tonight and then on to Roca.

Today has been amazing, we started our day with amazing dives, a lot of mantas and beautiful visibility, very light current from the N but the 2nd dive was much much better, with more than five mantas, dolphins, a school of hammerheads sharks, and many reef fish, and the best part of this is that we could hear the whales singing below the water, our guest Jim could see the tail when he was diving, he told us that he heard something and when he turned down to watch what it was, he saw the tale of the baby whale, in a few words, Cabo Pearce is very good.

Today we moved early to the boiler, the first dive with no current, visibility around 60 ft, water temperature 77°F, mantastic dive, mantas are back to the boiler, at least five different mantas were playing with all the divers, one of the guests from manta trust said all of them just males. Also, they could see a pod of eight bottlenose dolphins with a baby, dolphins stay for a few minutes with our divers.

Halfway through our trip with the Nautilus Belle Amie, we are already wishing we were here longer. San Benedicto was an amazing start to the journey and we were expertly guided through dives, El Canyon, and El Boiler exploring the depths around the volcanic island.

You Can Expect Top-Class Diving from the First Dive

By Nautilus Crew on January 20th, 2022 in Socorro reviews

There is a common belief among divers that check-out dives are not the best dives of a trip. In the expeditions to Socorro Islands, you can expect top-class diving from the first dive. We usually do our check-out dive from the stern of the boat in a dive site called Fondadero in San Benedicto Island. It is a good practice because everybody is relaxed and has time to do the final adjustments to their gear and weights. Relax divers always have good luck! This week our check-out dive was a blast! The current was mild, the visibility was 60 ft and the animals were all waiting for us. We saw one chevron oceanic manta and one black manta cleaning. While we were enjoying the mantas two adult bottlenose dolphins came by to call for some attention. They were scratching each other and closing their eyes while they were doing it. It seemed that they were enjoying it very much. They swam in circles around us three times. It was a magical moment. Oceanic mantas, dolphins, silvertips, whitetips on a check-out dive can happen only in Revillagigedo islands! Love on the first dive!
