Isla San Benedicto was glowing in this morning's sunrise

Hi everybody!

Isla San Benedicto was glowing in this morning's sunrise. Two Humpback whales and a few dolphins floated just behind the Solmar V. That was the scene we awoke to this morning.

We started our day of diving on El Boiler with beautiful visibility at 80ft., 71 degree (F) surface temp., and a strong current from the North. Upon entering the water we drifted to the shelter of the rock. We looked around all the nooks and crannies finding many green morays, lobsters, octopus, and scorpionfish. We took our time making our way to the cleaning  station and finally the mantas showed up. Two chevron mantas played with our divers for the last 10 minutes of the dive.

Our second dive yielded some even better action. Mantas were there straight away and we had four mantas together at one point. They came around and around revisiting the Clarion Angelfish on the cleaning station. We also were visited by a small group of 10 dolphins. The chirped and clicked with glee as they inspected our divers.

The last dive of the day yielded more mantas. Not as many visited at the same time, but we had some different individuals stop by the cleaning station. It was a nice day of diving on our favorite manta site El Boiler.. Tomorrow we're off to Roca Partida to dive with the sharks. Until next time...
