Flung 240 miles into the ocean at the convergence of nutrient-rich ocean currents, the Revillagigedo archipelago – and its main island Socorro – is home to world-wonder marine biodiversity.
With yachts being the only access point, we’ve brought guests to dive among everything from giant Pacific mantas and incredible densities of hammerheads.
We have the contacts with leading marine biologists to see you enjoy privileged access to conservation programmes, lending a hand in tagging marine life and learning from – while supporting – their vital work.
This is also home to some of the largest aggregations of sharks in the world including Galápagos, silky and silvertips. Here manta rays migrate in great numbers to cleaning stations, lobsters cover pinnacles and tiger sharks arrive to feed on the reefs’ scattered crustaceans and visiting sea turtles.
With accommodation unavailable on the islands, a superyacht offers unparalleled comfort to survey the sweeping oceans before plunging beneath the waves to dive sites that are just as rewarding as they are demanding. As well as exploring these waters, meet our marine biologists aboard a research vessel to spend time shark-tagging and checking underwater cameras.
Once you have finished your underwater adventure, make the most of your yacht’s kit or take to the skies in a helicopter for awe-inspiring aerial views of an archipelago beyond imagination.
Submersible dives
Search in a submersible for pods of inquisitive bottlenose dolphins or graceful manta ray displays. The use of a submersible will allow those who cannot dive to discover the extraordinary marine life.
Shark conservation
With marine biologists as your guides, dive through the day as you help retrieve underwater receivers, complete shark surveys and manta ray research, before spending evenings shark-tagging silkies, Galápagos and silver tip sharks.
Scuba diving
Dive in one of the only places on the planet where you can view humpback whales in total isolation. Other dive spots in the archipelago include lobster-covered pinnacles at El Fondeadero and the highly photographic Aquarium, where red tail triggerfish flit between the soft corals.
Marine biodiversity
The distinct topography of this region provides nutrients and shelter for an extraordinary variety of juvenile fish and much larger mammals, such as the filter-feeding whale shark. Also see some of the largest aggregations of sharks and manta rays in the world.
