IT WAS AMAZING!!!! SAW GIANT MANTAS DURING THE FIRST TEN MINUTES OF THE FIRST DIVE!!!!! SOCORRO ISLAND, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO.

Our first day at the South end of San Benedicto was a good start to our trip. On the first dive we saw mantas, dolphins and hammerhead sharks. Talk about a great beginning. The water temperature was 75 degrees which made the folks wearing 3mm suits very happy,  personally in an 8mm semi-dry I was the happiest! The second dive had frolicking mantas and the last dive held the expectation of hammerheads. Sadly, none were seen HOWEVER we are off to Roca Partida tomorrow so there is plenty of potential there. So far so good!

This trip has been absolutely fantastic so far. The crew is phenomenal, extremely personable and attend to our every need. The food is plentiful and fantastic, at every turn we are offered another delicious hot treat from breads to scones to cookies to cakes and then there are great three full meals a day! The passengers are a great eclectic bunch from all over the world including Germany, Finland, Switzerland, and the US. We are having a great time with each other. And oh, yeah, then there is the DIVING! On the second dive at Socorro Island today I was greeted by a curious and friendly manta ray with a 15 foot wingspan!!! The manta kept circling within 2 feet of me, sometimes within inches, and eyeing me. She allowed me to dance with her for 10 minutes, swimming right beside, on top of, and below her wings… It was a quiet and slow tango, and a beautiful personal experience I can’t wait for more. BRING IT ON!
