Manta Rays of Socorro Islands

If you want a few good reasons why you might want to bag a discounted liveaboard trip to dive Mexico, you are spoilt for choice. Especially when you have the Sea of Cortex and what this has to offer, and the Socorro Islands too, which is known as “Little “Galapagos“.

The Sea of Cortez has so much thrill and excitement to offer, with whale sharks, sea turtles, playful sea lions and you may be lucky enough to spot orcas too. If it’s playful marine creatures you like, the ever playful bottlenose and common dolphins live here too, together with pilot whales as well.

But if you are feeling even more adventurous, why not dive the Socorro Islands in the Pacific Ocean off the west coast of Mexico instead. Diving Socorro is renowned for its encounters with the world’s friendliest manta rays, together with other large marine animals like sharks, dolphins, tuna and whale sharks.

Plus, the only way to dive Socorro and the Revillagigedo Archipelago, is to dive from a Mexico liveaboard, which is an even better reason for you to find a great budget liveaboard deal and save money on your trip.

Incredible diving and crew! It went very well! They made a birthday cake for me, which was a very nice touch. Bringing your own fins is vital as the ones they offer are not sufficient for the current at a couple sites, but the sites are worth it! Also, nitrox should be more highly recommended as a lot of the sites are deeper!” Recommended for: Alcohol included (hassle free), service from the crew, amazing diving.

Review: Adventure; Book: Adventure 9.9 Exceptional from £260; $333; €304

A week of highlights. I experienced several firsts- bull sharks, eagle rays, mobula rays, and sea lions that interacted all day! The boat was very comfortable and the staff went above and beyond to guarantee a memorable week.” Recommended for: Sea life, staff, food.

Review: MV Nautilus Gallant Lady; Book: MV Nautilus Gallant Lady 9.5 Exceptional from £226; $289; €264

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…Recommended for: The people, crew and divers. The boat, comfortable and relaxing. The diving, incredible!

Review: MV Nautilus Belle Amie; Book: MV Nautilus Belle Amie 9.4 Superb from £232; $297; €271

Unique and Unforgettable!! The whole trip was well organised from the initial meeting at San Jose airport to the drop off at the end. Lorenzo (Mexican) is the main guide, and a true gentleman. He is as caring as your own father! Full of enthusiasm for each dive site and seems to have the manta’s and dolphins on speed dial!

We also saw schools of hammerheads and my first tiger shark in 18 years of diving. The other guide was a young Japanese lad called, Rui. Again, he was full of life and knew the dive sites very well, and couldn’t wait to get back in the water for the next dive. This is the enthusiasm that you want on a dive trip. I have been on the odd boat where the guides are tired and can’t be bothered to dive. I don’t mind having a small cabin that doesn’t have the latest flat screen TV, or missing out on warm fluffy towels on the dive deck.

The guides and the crew make ALL the difference on these trips. Both of these guides help make the trip very special with the wildlife encounters which we all had. The whole crew are a credit and know exactly what they are doing. The food was the best that I have ever had on 20+ liveaboards inc The Odyssey in Truk lagoon. The Valentina was a much better trip.

The cabins are quite old, but the boat is clean, hygienic and run so well. Yes there’s quite a bit of sailing to get there, but all the great dive sites around the world entail the same. If they were too easy to get to, they would be over dived and ruined. I can’t wait to book again to try and see the humpback whales on the next trip!Recommended for: 1) Dolphins, mantas and sharks that are tame and used to seeing divers. These are wild and yet they hang around and play in your bubbles! 2)The guides are fantastic.Really keen, but safe and good fun. 3)All the crew were great – attentive but not over the top.

Review: MV Valentina; Book: MV Valentina 9.2 Superb from £309; $396; €362

Sea Lions and Whale Sharks. Best parts were diving and interacting with the sea lions. We also had a long snorkel with the Whale Sharks which was quite memorable. The crew was fantastic and food was very good too. In addition black coral forests were fantastic along with nudibranchs and other sea life. Overall an excellent trip.Recommended for: Diving, Sea Lions, Whale Sharks, Food on boat.

Review: MV Rocio del Mar; Book: MV Rocio del Mar 9.2 Superb from £280; $358; €328

Great diving, dive masters and team onboard. The diving was excellent, the reviews about manta interactions and their curiosity was 100% true for my trip. Onboard the team, particularly Laura and Saki were great, very friendly and always happy to help. Our captain – Ramon, made sure we were always safe at sea. It’s worth saying that Socorro is a remote dive site and if you’re going later in the season expect bigger currents so if you’re affected by seas sickness then bring some meds! Recommended for: 1. Giant Mantas 2. Dolphins 3. Sharks.

Review: MV Nautilus Explorer; Book: MV Nautilus Explorer 8.9 Fabulous from £258; $330; €302

An amazing trip with 20 dives in super Viz and so much to see.. The highlights were closely interacting with the Giant Manta’s, And visiting local areas and dive sights in Baja before the sailing, esp. Cabo Pulmo.Recommended for: The Pelagics were fabulous …The crew were brilliant…and the food was really great.
