SOCORRO: Epic Diving with Mantas & Sharks in Mexico
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 มิ.ย. 2019
- For a long time, we’ve been dreaming about visiting one of the world-famous spots you can only reach on a liveaboard 🛳. This year in February, we finally fulfilled this dream and headed out with Nautilus Liveaboards to go diving in Socorro - one of THE most famous destinations on Earth.
00:26 Intro
01:44 Revillagigedo Islands
02:19 Whales & Dolphins
03:14 Oceanic Manta Rays
04:39 Live on the Boat
05:32 7 Species of Sharks
07:32 What a Dive
It’s early February in the wild blue waters of the Eastern Pacific Ocean. Here, roughly 500 kilometers off the Mexican coast, the Revillagigedo Islands rise steeply out of the sea. It’s hard to imagine, that this place provides a safe haven for spectacular creatures.
While diving you may encounter playful dolphins, giant oceanic manta rays gliding through the water and perfectly adapted predators on their patrol. Under the watch of the rough vulcanoe,
that once created this natural treasure.
This is one of the most iconic dive destinations on this planet. The Revillagigedo islands
are part of the largest fully protected marine reserves in North America, world-famous
for the great concentration of pelagics.
With a wingspan of up to 7 meters these are the largest rays in the world. As smart and curious animals, Giant Pacific Manta Rays are known to approach and interact with divers.
These islands provide a protected refuge for seven species of sharks: white tip sharks, silvertip sharks, blacktip sharks, silky sharks, hammerhead sharks, Galapagos sharks and tiger sharks.
A big thanks to the Nautilus Liveaboards crew for this exciting experience! Read about our experience on their blog: nautilusliveaboards.com/2019/...

We had such a blast in Socorro, what a beautiful place for diving. Hope you enjoyed the video 🦈!
What’s your favorite dive spot in the world 🐠? Let us know below! We'd love to hear!
wow 🥺
Super.. Bravo Man.. Love 👍👍
Thank you, Vali! You’re awesome 👏!
Great video🔥🔥🔥🔥
We're heading there this Nov after having to cancel it last year because of pandemic. Your video is amazing and getting me to stoked!
Favorite dive sites...Socorro #1, Cocos Island #2, Galapagos #3, Raja Ampat and the Coral Triangle #4
I hope you guys start producing videos again. I love your channel. Great video!!
How unknown is the sea , so much vastly unexplored with so much beauty and much mysteries - the school of dolphins must be quite the treat guys
Nick and Helmi Omg, you’re absolutely right! We’ve never seen that many dolphins around - couldn’t even show it on the video. We only showed the close ones, but they were literally everywhere, several hundreds as far as we could see!
This is unreal, you two! I almost felt as if I was there. Who needs the Discovery Channel or Animal Planet when we can watch Bugs & Bears! 😃
You're too kind 🥰! We really appreciate your comment and your support, thanks a lot 🙌!
Nah, it is the truth! We admire your skills/talent and try to learn from y'all 😊
Wow, einfach unbeschreiblich tolle Aufnahmen! Da würde man am liebsten gleich selbst die Koffer packen =)
Danke ihr Lieben! Socorro war ein absolutes Highlight unserer bisherigen Tauchspots. Absolut zum Empfehlen 💙! Nur die Delfine ließen sich leider nicht blicken Unterwasser 💁♂️. Da hattet ihr in Ägypten wohl mehr Glück!
Tolles Tauchvideo! Mit Haien bin ich bisher noch nicht getaucht. Sieht absolut beeindruckend aus!
Danke lieber Gerhard! Dort gab’s jede Menge davon 😍. Bist du öfters mal Tauchen?
@@bugsandbears Ja, ich tauche immer wieder mal.
this is so epic guys!! you really killed it, the footage looks so amazing. seems like you saw more marine life on this one trip than most people do in a lifetime!!!
wish we could get our underwater footage to be as good as yours! haha
We appreciate you a lot, Alex and Lucille! But your whale sharks and mantas in Dhangethi are quite as epic, guys! Loving them!
The density of marine life in Socorro is really crazy - especially the amount of different sharks. And we've never seen a (natural) bait ball before (05:39). So many sharks 😊💙!
I loved watching this one. What a great experience.
Thanks, man! We really enjoyed our days out on the ocean there 🐬!
I love this! Thanks so much for sharing with us! 💛🧡❤💜💙💚😊👍
Thanks, Mike for joining the underwater adventure 🐬! Cheers from Austria!
YOU SHOULD HAVE WAY MORE SUBS. YOUR PRODUCTION IS GOOD. SO I'VE SUBBED. ...BE GOOD.
DBM. ENGLAND.
APPRECIATE YOU, DBM! GREETINGS FROM AUSTRIA 🇦🇹.
@@bugsandbears AND GREETINGS FROM ENGLAND. YOU MAKE EXCELLENT VIDEOS, BLOODY BRILLIANT IN FACT!!! KEEP GOING SIR :0) DBM.
I cannot express how much i like your editing. You guys take time to release videos but deliver big time and crossing off some amazing things from your list. I wonder how you find this adventures...
Yeah, we'd love to post more regularly, but we also want to take our time to get the videos/stories really on point. Happy that you watched our diving adventure in Socorro 🦈!
Love it!!! Carl is gonna love this video, he is finally certified scuba diver and will show him the video tonight!!! We want to do the live board in the future too! Cuz I don't dive I will be happy snorkelling with Mantas in Bali! :)
Karina Keeps Escaping Yeey, big congrats to Carl for becoming a scuba diver. New worlds ahead 😎! So awesome! Just always let us know if you guys need any diving recommendations!
amazing ❤
so far my favorit spot is either (Ras um sid) or (Jackson reef) both in the red Sea
we had a close encounter with a giant manta ray at Ras um sid recently, so amazing ❤
Sounds epic! The Red Sea is still on our list. So close to Europe bit we’ve still never been. Thanks for your recommendations 🤗!
@@bugsandbears Indeed truly amazing ❤
the red sea is amazing diving for the price, especially when you travel from Europa.
its a short flight, its cheap, the weather is allways great.
but for us, its diving and diving only.
Wow! Only 2nd video of yours I've watched and you guys have some awesome footage! Keep up the great work. How's the Mavic Air? Still alive I hope..
Hey guys, glad you’re enjoying our stories 🤗! The drone is still alive, but we’ve recently sold it second-hand (to someone who’s able to fully repair it) and got a new one.
2:54 extra click sound by mistake !! if u have noticed it u probably a videographer or editor
Good spot, Abdrahman 🎬! It's the sound of closing the dive computer.
347 view srsly??? omgggg
Only a few privileged viewers ever get to see this video 😅. Haha!
