Socorro Islands – Solmar V Liveaboard
The Socorro Islands are located into the Pacific Ocean 250 miles due south from the tip of the Baja Peninsula, Mexico. These islands have been compared to Galapagos or Cocos in the quality of Big Animal encounters they provide. They have in fact been called “Mexican Galapagos”. There are a lot of sharks – huge hammerhead schools, white tips, silver tips, silkys, duskies, galapagos & occasionally tigers.
The Best Big Animal Diving
We have counted up to 7 species of shark on JUST ONE DIVE! These islands are famous for unbelievable encounters with Giant Mantas. These winged giants are up to 22 feet across and it is common to be in the water with 5 to 12 of these winged giants at once. This may seem like an exaggeration but it definitely is not! They seem to enjoy interaction with scuba divers, thinking we are giant cleaner fish and once they arrive stay with our divers all day long. It has been said by many well-known underwater photographers that “there is no better place in the world to shoot giant mantas.” Throw in Whale Sharks, Giant Tuna (the world record yellowfin is from these waters), Wahoo and many other BIG critters along with endemic tropicals found nowhere else in the world and you have The BEST BIG ANIMAL DIVING ON EARTH!!
