The Revillagigedo Archipelago are a group of four volcanic islands in the Pacific Ocean, 240 miles south of Cabo San Lucas in Mexico. These islands have been compared to those of the Galapagos and Cocos because of their remoteness and the chance of seeing the oceans "big stuff'. Socorro is the most diverse of the chain of islands and it is here that divers can have close interactions with friendly Giant Pacific Manta Rays as they gracefully glide overhead. The Mantas congregate by the dozen at a submerged sea mount that has become a cleaning station and a haven for divers wanting to see these amazing creatures.

In the blue Silky, Silver Tip, Galapagos, Hammerhead and White Tip Reef sharks cruise by and at times Tigers and Dusky sharks can also be seen. Apart from the chance of some serious shark and manta action, a myriad of colourful reef fish and clouds of large pelagics have made these remote islands their home. Jacks, Yellow Tailed Tuna, Barracuda, Bonitas and Wahoo can be seen hanging over rocky outcrops or chasing smaller fish. Octopus, Turtles, Spotted Trunkfish and Scorpion fish are additional highlights and during February and March Humpback Whales migrate past these Islands and can be heard singing. A very lucky few have even had the opportunity to dive with these spectacular animals. Few other destinations can offer the chance of this much excitement!
