Mario: Statt dem Fruestueck Schnorcheln mit Delfinen und Buckelwalen – zum Greifen nahe! 1. Tauchgang mit Hammerhaien und natuerlich auch Mantas. Dann aber endlich Fruestueck, aber nur kurz, da von den Buckelwalen wieder zum Schnorchel eingeladen 😉 2. Tauchgang natuerlich wieder Hammerhaie und absolut jeder durfte mal mit dem netten Manta tanzen. Vor dem 3. […]

Location: The Canyon dive site, San Benedicto, Socorro Islands, Mexico As Captain onboard the Nautilus Explorer, I often get caught up in the “daily grind” of the day to day operations, sometimes forgetting why I chose this as a career in the first place, which of course is the scuba diving. It’s too easy to […]

The Canyon and the Boiler dive sites, San Benedicto Island, Socorro, Revillagigedos Well, just another day in diving paradise! I’ve been on many liveaboard diving adventures all over the world and those who have done likewise will agree that It’s not every day that you can more or less guarantee swimming with a giant Manta […]

Actually, we stand corrected on that. Socorro is only one of 4 islands in the Revillagigedo Archipelago. The other islands are San Benedicto, Clarion, Roca Partida — although it’s a bit of stretch to call the tiny outpost of Roca Partida an island!! Socorro Island has been temporarily closed for security reasons by the […]
