Today
was our first day at Roca Partida, the water temperature was 75F with
80'+ visibiility on our first two dives, but on the last dive the
current picked up bringing with it murky water, and visibility
dropped to around 50'. We saw white tip sharks resting on the caves
of the wall, in one cave we counted 10 sharks hanging out, our divers
had a great opportunity to take nice shots of them! A school of
hammerheads was at the southern tip of Roca in deep water, so we only
got to view them from above. On the northern side of Roca, Galapagos
and silver tip sharks were swimming at around 100' of water and
coming close to us so we had a nice view of them. During the ascent
to do our safety stop, a couple of curious silky sharks came to see
us and followed us for a few minutes. Tomorrow we will dive again at
Roca and hopefully the school of hammerheads will be waiting for us!
Now it's time for a nice dinner, and our guests are salsa dancing and
having a great time aboard the Solmar V!
