make many quiet dives down to swim among them and even had them swim over the top of me. Such a wonderful opportunity to observe their social structure and behaviors.

Did Someone Say Orca?

Never seen an orca ever in my life, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Spotting them was a 50/50 chance during our 7-night and 8-day expedition. Knowing that going in, there was a possibility we might not see them and accepted that. I was really hoping that we were able to see them. Looking for them in such a vast open ocean can be looking for a needle in a haystack. I remained optimistic.

This was an amazing trip and exceeded our expectations. Seeing the migration of the mobulas in such big schools is just wonderful. Besides hundreds of playful dolphins, humpback & fin whales we even were so lucky to spend 2 days with orcas.

There is nothing more fascinating than witnessing one of nature’s most spectacular sights. Whales! And there’s no better place than the majestic waters of the Sea of Cortez.

We have been fortunate to spot whales pretty much every day since our liveaboards started this season. Scouting this area alongside Katie (our Citabria pilot) we have discovered a couple of secret spots to encounter these humble giants.

By Nautilus Crew on May 25th, 2022 in Conservation, Sea of Cortez

We were fortunate enough this first week to find whales pretty much every day: pairs of mother and calves of humpbacks breaching out and playing, blue whales, fin whales, and even a gray whale! Aside from these, we were surprised to have found a couple of pregnant whale sharks as well! Pods of dolphins and mobulas aggregations are in our daily sightings.

Yet another amazing day we had today. After having seen so many different kinds of animals on this trip I thought we would be running out of things to amaze our guests. I was wrong.

By Nautilus Crew on April 28th, 2022 in Dive Report

We saw all the smaller shark species that Revi has to offer, we had Dolphin interaction twice this trip and obviously, we had friendly Mantas almost every dive… guess what some of our guests even saw a Humpback underwater, and that out of the whale season. Excellent diving, pivoting moments of your life, amazing group of people, new friendships, positivity over the whole trip, what else could you wish for.
