Waking up to a Starlit Sky at Roca Partida, moon high in the sky standing on the top lounge deck of the Nautilus Explorer; trying to take it all in as you wake up.  Everyone is up early for a remarkable Dawn dive, as the crew are up top, captain manning the Crane and getting […]

If you can tear your eyes away from the big fish, you’ll find a vertical wall extending straight down for 200 feet with caves filled with resting white tip reef sharks lined up like sardines

Roca Partida as we know it from the surface is a guano covered rock extending about 100 feet into the air and about 200 feet in length, poking up out of the pacific ocean 60 nautical miles from the nearest island of Socorro. In the bigger picture it is the very tip, the last second […]

After finishing another “Jaws”-dropping season with the great white sharks at Guadalupe Island we have returned to our home for the rest of the year here at the Islas Revillagigedo, also known as the Socorro Islands. Into my 6th season as Captain here at the islands it’s always nice to return to the familiar sights […]

It's not easy to describe Roca Partida; it just has to be experienced. The water is warm (80F), the visibility is great (80+ft) and these two facts are far from the best part.

The undersea life here is simply stunning.  Today we saw 5 different species of sharks, abundant fish, a giant manta. It was a big day for me personally, as I saw my first hammerhead shark and my first whale shark.  It was also my first dive with no bottom reference.  We spent most of our […]

The lost ROCK from XDivers Rodrigo Figueiredo on Vimeo.   On our way to Roca Partida we stop to take a swim the weather was so calm and the sun was out. There was nothing much to do but tan on the top deck and just wait patiently to see what Roca Partida had for […]
