Clear skies with patches of with 2/8 Water temp 78F Vis 60-70ft Moderate current to South Arrived last night at Cabo pearce. No other any boat in the site. We have had two morning dives so far, it has been slow dives. First dive they saw one hammerhead and one manta being chased by a silky shark. One galapagos shark, few silvertips and reef white tips. Second dive more of the same, but this time no Manta and 4 hammerheads. Current is slight to moderate to south and vis around 60-70 ft. Yesterday afternoon at Punta Tosca dive was slow, few reef whitetips and one ray, divers liked the rock formation there. After the dive we moved to navy base. When we were entering in the bay there was a humpback whale breaching just inside the bay, all guests came forward to see the whale, but when we were approaching them, they dove and moved out of the bay. We arrived there at 1600 hrs and we wait 2 hours until the navy personnel came onboard. we depart from the navy base around 1900 hrs. Last night silkiy snorkel was good, we could saw 7 silkies at the same time and we had silkies all the time. But the highlight was that we heard and saw the blow from a humpback whale like 50 mts from the boat, we were expecting that the whale get closer to the boat but we never could hear again the blow.
All guests and crew are happy.
