Our fist dive day started with a big playful pod of 25 dolphins! We started our dive week diving at El Boiler with a water temperature of 74F/23C and a clear blue water of over 100´/30m visibility and no current. The top of the pinnacle was covered of hundreds of Bigeye Jacks that tried to escape of the dolphins, for us that gave us a great opportunity to capture awesome pics and video footage. These dolphins played all dive long with all 3 groups of divers.
We did 2 more dives in El Boiler, unfortunately the Mantas didn´t come by, they might be feeding in Socooro Island, anyway, we still had great dives checking the Whitetip Reef Sharks that always patrol El Boiler and swimming in between the massive school of Jacks. We decided to move to Las Cuevas to finish our dive day and I guess we made a great decision, because the caves were full of whitetip reef sharks, on top of that we also encountered couple friendly Green Turtles. We also saw few juvenile Galapagos Sharks that swam over the reef. Tonight, we´ll head for Socorro Island in the quest of the Pacific Giant Mantas!
Stay tuned!
