No words are enough to describe todays dives at Roca Partida!
We arrived early in the morning and with a crystal clear water that was a refreshing 75 degrees F in the surface and still 73 at 60 ft, we started the day with too many white tip sharks to count, over 20 Galapagos Sharks, some Silky Sharks and millions of Pacific Creoles, Jacks, all that in the middle of a gentle current coming from the north west of the island.

Our second dive was promising from the start when we face a massive school of black jacks chased by around 7 big Galapagos sharks, The current was a little bit more demanding in this dive, but still easy to go trough, what made the dive very enjoyable for every diver. Visibility and temperature remained the same all day long!

On our third and last dive of the day, we had the visit of our big friend at Roca Partida! A curious whale shark stayed with us at 30 to 20 ft of water, for the entire dive giving our photographers the chance to keep him in their lens as long as they needed it. Big Tunas and Wahoos in the background added to best dive of the trip so far!


- Tomorrow we will look for our friend again before heading back to San Benedicto for the last 2 days of our trip.-

See you soon,
