Which Liveaboard for Socorro?

[Dan]

Wife and I are headed to Socorro on the Belle Amie in December. First time, and looking forward to it!
Tacking on to this thread: anyone been to Socorro in late-December? I'm specifically looking for water temperature information.

I’ll be on Belle Amie from 23rd to 31st of December 2025. Which dates would you be on it?

As for water temperatures in December, check out Table 1 of my trip report: Trip Report - Socorro 22-30 December, 2018 Trip Report

We were aboard the Belle Amie over Christmas December 2024.
Overall a great trip, diving was amazing, and I would absolutely dive Socorro with Nautilus again, but not on the Belle Amie.
> way too many divers
> gearing up for a dive is a nightmare due to the above
> poor layout -- particularly in the dining area and saloon -- given the number of guests
> shabby vessel (in absolutely perfect safe working order, but in dire need of TLC; the veneer of luxury fades when you examine closely).

Just took the Nautilus Under Sea Hunter, only 19 divers and all the amenities of the bigger boats. <3 It's like the 6-pack of Socorro boats.

I'm just about to pull the plug for a trip on it in June. I was thinking of going back to Belize but the prices are about the same and I like the big critters(multiple trips out to Cocos Island.)
