Customer ReviewsThe MV Nautilus Under Sea liveaboard customer reviews listed here have been chosen for you to get a feel for the scuba diving experience you'll get.
Customer Review
”Fantastic viewing of Great Whites and a super enjoyable trip. Seeing Lucy a big female turn up for last few hours of trip.” Recommended for: Sharks, food and visibility.
Customer Review ByRichard M, from: United Kingdom scored the MV Nautilus Under Sea 8.8 out of 10; Review courtesy of Liveaboard.com, for more reviews and information click here: MV Nautilus Under Sea.
”Great White Shark Diving at Guadalupe Island. Full points for the crew, food. and the diving experience. It is well deserved. The cabin comfort didn’t rate full points because we had issues with the central air in the cabins below decks. Our room was too hot while someone else was getting all our cold air. We were offered and accepted an upgrade to the premium cabin, so it ended well for us, and the captain said they will work to resolve this problem in the future.
As someone with thousands of dives around the world, and having seen thousands more sharks, I wasn’t enthusiastic about diving in a cage, but I also hadn’t seen great white sharks before. After this experience, I would do it again. I averaged 4 to 5 hours a day in the cages watching the great white sharks, and they didn’t disappoint me. They were very photogenic, with lots of photos and videos made. It is an experience even the ”hardcore” divers should try. Bring a drysuit if you have one, or the thickest wetsuit you have. The water is cool, and you’ll be able to stay in longer and more comfortably.” Recommended for: 1. Seeing the great white sharks. 2. Seeing Bullet, a very large female that hadn’t been seen in the last ten years. 3. Up close encounters with great white sharks.
