Highlights
Custom-built for divers, the Nautilus Belle Amie ship is the largest of the Nautilus Liveaboards’ fleet. With amenities akin to a floating boutique hotel, and a reputation for offering high-level service on board, the Nautilus Belle Amie accommodates 32 guests in 17 en-suite staterooms and suites. On the lower deck are 8 twin staterooms plus one affordable triple occupancy stateroom. The main deck has 2 premium suites, and 6 superior suites are on the wheelhouse deck. Bedding in the suites can be converted to twins or doubles. All rooms also feature individually controlled air-conditioning.
On the main deck is a large salon and dining area, where a fusion of Mexican and West Coast North American food is served. All dietary requirements, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, food allergy options, and quasi-kosher, can be catered to with prior notice. Breakfast, lunch, and snacks are buffet-style, and the evening meal is served plated buffet or family-style. There are two fully-stocked extensive bars on board, which include single malts, microbrews, and a large selection of wine. The large sun deck has space for everyone to enjoy lounging in the sun and a hot tub to warm up in-between dives or enjoy after diving with a drink and snack.
The heavy steel construction with stabilization of the Nautilus Belle Amie liveaboard means she was perfectly designed for ocean crossings to get divers to the world-class dive sites of the Socorro Islands or over to Guadalupe for up-close encounters with great white sharks. From November - June, the Socorro Islands are open to offering some of the best diving in the world. Friendly mantas, dolphins, humpback whales, pilot whales, and up to 10 species of shark are just some of the marine encounters the Socorro Islands offer. Or for those who want to get up close with great white sharks, the Guadalupe season offers from July - November each year. The large dive deck, onboard nitrox, and 3 large dive skiffs ensure an easy diving experience.

Incredible experience
It's a nice boat. It's the biggest one I've been on, having up to 32 divers, so that was new. The diving was unreal. Saw tiger twice and countless mantas and sharks on most dives, plus got up very close with dolphins at least 3 times, and I'm talking about long up-close encounters with anywhere from 4 up to 12 dolphins. The food was very good, and the dive guides are very good. Highly recommend this boat.

Great experience in every way
Fantastic - too many wonderful experiences to list here but highlights were; snorkelling in a bait ball with sea lions, marlins etc, diving with giant mantas on just about every dive and playing with dolphins on one dive …. just amazing. As were the whole crew; everyone one of them were brilliant. Thank you

Magical mantas
3 trip with Naulitus in a year! Love the company. This is the biggest vessel yet. 32 divers was A LOT but everything systematically managed by groups so diving worked out just fine. Super nice boat that made the crossing so much smoother/easier. Very experienced, safety first and passionate crew especially guides and their energy underwater shows. Love love love them. Great diving. Life was abundant. Mexican animals are friendly just like the people. Magical manta encounters that (almost) beat my eye to eye orca interactions haha. Food was super yummy too.

Incredible experience in a beautiful dive location, led by great crew
The highlights of this trip are the animals - the reason we travel to Revillagigedos to dive. The curious and playful dolphins, the mysterious hammerheads, and the amazing majestic mantas will bring us back for sure!

Best Trip of my Life!
I had one of the most beautiful trips of my life, the scuba diving was out of this world, I felt I was in a dream, with dolphins, giant mantas, hammer heads and all kinds of sharks, volcanic topography, wow! Also the crew so friendly and amazing, and the service was superb. It was worth every peso, I only want to do Liveaboard holidays from now on, especially with Nautilus, thank you!

Amazing dive vacation on the Belle Amie
Diving Socorro on the Belle Amie did not disappoint. We saw schooling scalloped hammerheads, giant oceanic mantas, dolphins, and many other shark species. The weather was perfect and the crew went above and beyond to make this dive trip unforgettable.

Comfortable spacious safety conscientious boat providing up close diving with the giant pacific manta and hammerheads!
Diving with the Nautilus Belle Amie was a most pleasant experience. The boat catered to all dietary needs, rooms were larger than most liveaboards I've been on, nitrox is available, and the boat was re-breather friendly. They focus on safety, providing each diver with a personal Nautilus Lifeline (GPS) unit to dive with, and always having a zodiac in the water watching while the different dive teams are out. The diving was so spectacular, I witnessed a plethora of sea life diving this bucket list place; schools of hammerheads, Galapagos sharks, Tiger shark, black Mantas up close, a pregnant hammerhead, listening to whales sing while diving, seeing a whale breach up close to the liveaboard, playing dolphins, watching silky sharks hunt, seeing a school of tuna and school of Pampano, as well as a very large tuna up close!
