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.

Bravo Nautilus Belle Amie!
The trip was perfect. I felt comfortable with the staff and crew. Everyone was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. They were readily available. The room was nice with good hot showers. All of the staff was fantastic from Julio the chef to Mar and Osa, all of the Dive Masters were great, including Pascal, Enrique, Diego, Juan, etc. Ask the Captain was also fantastic. Overall, it was a great trip.

EPIC!!!
From the welcome on the boat with smiles and Champagne to the daily briefings from Oscar, our captain.. Wow. The boat is great, nice size, really well organized. The staff are simply outstanding! From Ana and Mar the hostess's on our trip to our Dive guides, Diego, Grettel, Nikee, Dorjee, Luis. to the chef (OMG his food!!!) Juilio. Custom made breakfasts, delicious meals and snacks all day long. I gained weight!!! Now the core...the diving. It is simply EPIC! They tell you don't chase the Manta Rays, they will come to you. Just hang out. They are so right! We had 4 or 5 Mantas on almost every single dive. Each Manta checking out each diver. Being eye to eye with a Manta ray is something I will never forget!!! They were playful and curious. Beautiful. Whale sharks. We saw 2 in one dive!!! We had 8 dives with at least one Whale Shark. Unreal. Hammerheads. So neat to see them swimming by. If you are considering this trip, just book it! There is nothing that wasn't absolutely amazing on this trip, staff, food and diving. You can't ask for better!!

Great Trip!
Pretty chill trip. The dive sites were not as good as Cocos island honestly, but the crew were awesome and the vessel were comforable (had good sleep every day which is not common for liveaboard). You can do 4 dives a day if you want though I mostly of the time only do 3 dives which is far than enough.

A wonderful and memorable experience!
I realized that a lot of people in the world are not privileged to see such large majestic creatures up close and safely, which made me appreciate the experience so much more. I also enjoyed my time being surrounded by nature and hearing the sounds of the sea, as this was truly therapeutic. The supportive and helpful crew, who took the initiative to reach out and engage with me, made all the difference as well. I took pictures with them and included them on my FB page. Of course, traveling with fellow guests-- who at first were strangers-- and learning about their unique backgrounds, their enthusiasm and passion for the sea and their utmost friendliness also made the experience fun.
