Amazing trip!
Overall, this was the best diving I have ever done. We had so many mantas, dolphins, sharks, whale sharks on every dive. The entire crew was friendly and helpful! I have a dietary restriction and the chef did a perfect job of accommodating me and the food was delicious. The boat itself is not the best, a little noisy and has treacherous stairs to the lower deck, I didn’t get hot water even one time in my room, and there was black soot/ash on the top deck that got all over my feet, clothes, everything. Despite this, overall amazing trip.

Spectacular shark encounters
The almost 6m tall "Lucy" and another female of almost the same size, which were often very close to the cages. Sighting of a total of almost 30 different great white sharks. The information from the professional crew about the sharks and their distinguishing features was also great. This gives guests the opportunity to photograph a shark that has not yet been registered and to give it a name. The spectacular jumps of the sharks out of the water were also sensational.
- Recommended for
- A great experience to experience the great white sharks so closely, the warmth of the crew and the possibility of unlimited cage diving.

unforgettable experience
The underwater world has surpassed everything seen so far. The crew on the boat was super friendly, helpful and took care of the well-being of the guests. An all-round successful trip. Come back on this boat, the number of guests is ideal, so you don't get in each other's way under water.

Sea lions & whale sharks in the Sea of Cortez!
I just returned from an incredible week in the Sea of Cortez aboard the Nautilus Undersea. The diving was just incredible and definitive trip highlights were diving with the sea lions and snorkeling and swimming with the whale sharks. The boat crew were extremely friendly and worked nonstop and we had 3 amazing dive guides throughout the week. We learned quite a bit about the Sea of Cortez through various nightly presentations on board and also had fun swimming and kayaking during surface intervals. I can’t say enough about our chef as all the meals were fantastic and our hostess was so friendly and always smiling. What an incredible week!
