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.

An unforgettable diving trip that lived up to my expectations!
A great experience- energetic dives with sharks, mantas, and more. There were a few dives that were a hit and miss, but overall the experience was memorable and truly special.

Mantas and sharks galore - feel and see the magic
A superb living boat experience in one of the best dive spots of the world. The archipelago Revillagigedo grants you a glimpse into the distant past of an unspoiled ocean. Mantas and sharks galore seasoned with the occasional experience of sea turtles, whale sharks, and dolphins. It is a must on the bucket list for divers loving the encounter with large pelagics. The giant mantas are very inquisitive and engage with divers regularly. The dive site “El Canyon” and “El Boiler” around the San Benedicto island are strong recommendations! The access to the dive sites is limited by the marine park authorities so a crowded dive feeling like in the Red Sea never emerges.
- Recommended for
- Expertise and knowledge of dive guides. Friendliness and service orientation of hospitality staff. Comfort and space of the dive boat.

By far the best liveaboard experience to date!
Diving was easy, not rushed and the team adjusted the dive schedule according to the water conditions. Dive guides were always amenable and eager to help. The chef and stewardesses were top-notch, making everyone feel at home.

A truly memorable experience with friendly staff, excellent food and the most amazing diving.
We picked this trip as we had never seen an oceanic manta, they did not disappoint. In addition we saw dolphins up close underwater and numerous species of shark not seen before plus, on one dive, several amazing encounters with a whale shark. The organisation by the crew to ensure we had the best experience whilst on the boat was truly exceptional, nothing seemed too much trouble. Although the diving was intense, when out of the water we were able to relax and felt cared for by all the staff. Such a good trip with great memories to look back on, until the next time...
