Nautilus Belle Amie - Nautilus Undersea - Solmar V - Rocio del Mar

Nautilus Explorer is a ship of 40 meter of length build in 1999. The ship was custom designed with the highest possible level of safety and comfort for divers. The amazing design utilizes every square foot of available space. Nautilus has received the ultimate confirmation of seaworthiness and safety certification: the SOLAS passenger certificate for short international voyages.

From November until end of May Nautilus explorer travels to Socorro Island once or twice per month and sometimes combines the trips with dive days at Guadalupe Island and sea of cortez. Nautilus carries for Socorro Trips up to 24 divers. The Nautilus was carefully designed with a heavy and strong steel construction and extensive soundproofing to be safe and comfortable.The vessel’s bulbous bow, hullform and passive stability system provides for a remarkably easy ride while heavy-duty commercial grade systems ensure that you have a smooth-running voyage.

After departure you will be sailing for 24 hours in open to the Revillagigedo Archipelago. Sea conditions are usually fairly benign and the Nautilus Explorer is a heavy steel stabilized ship. However we still recommend anti-seasickness medication for anyone who is worried about the motion.

On a normal trip of 8 nights you will have 6 diving days , during these 6 days you will visit 3 different islands of the beautiful and remote Revillagigedo Archipelago. After the last full dive day you will pack up and enjoy a relaxing dinner then you will travel back to Cabo san lucas. You will arrive in Cabo San lucas the next evening and spend one more night on the boat before you disembark the next morning at 8:30 a.m.

We also offer 10- and 12-night combo trips that combine diving at Socorro with the best of the Sea of Cortez, 15-night combo trips combining Socorro with Clipperton Island, and 15-night combo trips with the great white sharks of Guadalupe Island.
