Solmar V - Socorro Islands, MX

I highly recommend this liveaboard dive boat to the magical Socorro Islands.

Check out my latest video to get a sneak peek of Manta Rays, dolphins, hammerheads, whalesharks and much more

YouTube - Manta Salsa Dancing on the Solmar V in Socorro Isles

Hey, I think that's me in some of those shots at El Squid Roe...dancing on the tables and pole dancing in the cage. You are a very, very bad influence on innocent and vulnerable people like me. :blinking: I never did stuff like that before that trip. Of course diving with giant mantas every day, perfect visibility, hundreds of sharks, getting spawned by a dolphin, and drinking margaritas every night helped to made the trip really special!

I've have had so many great trips on the Solmar V to Socorro, Sea of Cortez and to Guadalupe. Its one of my favorite live-aboards. We've chartered the whole boat in March of 2010. That's humpback whale season and we're keepin' our fingers crossed for some awesome encounters.

Nice job on the video. There are a lot of boring videos on YouTube but your's certainly isn't one of them!

This trip is on my short list and I appreciate your comments and recommendation.

I hate to be contrary but I did't particularly like the "slide show". It seems well put together but it goes so fast you never really get a chance to see anything. I suppose it could be stopped but I prefer a slower pace when diving and reviewing pictures. Thanks for posting however.

If this is on your short list, you NEED to go!! It is a fabulous trip. Thanks for the comments on the video; I have several posted. If you like a slower one, check this one out!

Now that's my kind of diving and video. Excellent. Thanks.
