Hi all from the great volcano at San Benedicto!! Well, today we did our check out dive at El Fondeadero, Isla San Benedico, current was almost zero from west, but the water temp really got us! 71f surface and 69f during the dive, vis from 30ft to 15ft at times, so we went diving and did 3 groups to have divers safer and confortables, a 50 minutes dive was enought to be in the water with lots of creolfish due to the plancton floating as we are descending, 12 metres down we see the rock, locky us that got to see green moray eels swimming free not afraid of us at all, lobsters and two white tip sharks, other people were playing with a big octopus, a manta for an instant of a second, time to come up! Surfacing First thing we see is our Captain Gerardo ready to help with fins and other scuba equipment! We finished the day with a great panga ride courtesy of the one and only Geronimo before watching a beatiful sunset. Inst. Daniel Zapata
The Solmar V is a true four-season live-aboard that takes advantage of weather patterns to provide optimal diving year-round. We spend November - June Diving with giant mantas, wild dolphin, seasonal whales, and seven species of shark at the Socorro Islands and August-October we are cage diving with great white sharks at Guadalupe Island.
