I accidentally discovered that while riding a nautilus underwater, using a trident with Riptide III killed it. I then tested the same thing in Creative mode by giving the nautilus Netherite armor to make sure it was actually taking damage, and I was right. The level of the Riptide enchantment does not matter.
Environment
The nautilus must be in water deep enough for the trident with the Riptide enchantment to be used.
