The most spectacular pelagic diving on the planet! The Galapagos is one of those rare places where you can dive through hundreds of hammerhead sharks to find a whale shark cruising along. Toss in silky sharks, sea turtles, giant morays and schooling fish in their thousands… And that’s just the first dive at Darwin! At Wolf Island you can expect huge Galapagos sharks and eagle rays up close while dives at Cabo Marshall will put you face to face with giant manta rays and inside a school of millions of black-striped salemas. Mola mola (sunfish) may be seen in the depths too. Macro life is plentiful. Black coral bushes shelter seahorses, blennies, nudibranchs, hawkfish and frogfish. Sea iguanas are a unique sight, along with speedy penguins and playful sea lions. This is but a mere taste of why divers consistently proclaim the Galapagos to have the healthiest marine life in the Pacific.

All the islands you travel to are amazing sites for underwater photography.

Mexico
Journey to the remote Socorro Islands on the Nautilus Explorer. The manta behavior here is unique in the world with 12-to-16-foot giant mantas interacting with divers. Sometimes they hover alongside or underneath a diver, where they often stay, curious and playful to the delight of every diver.
The Nautilus Explorer stays committed to the Socorro Islands (a.k.a. the Revillagigedo Archipelago), and it's well worth the full-day motor south from Cabo San Lucas. Volcanic in origin, these islands serve as an oasis amid the Sea of Cortez, 250 miles off the Baja Peninsula coast. The raw lava flows and active volcanoes in these islands resemble the lost world of “Jurassic Park,” which seems fitting as these outpost islands, including Roca Partida, beckon not just to giant mantas but to a host of big animals. Guadalupe is all about diving with one creature - the Great White Shark.
