NUS Anchored at 19 17.4N-110 48.3W in 50ft depth, Canyon, San Benedicto, sky 3/4 partly cloudy and wind from the NE 10 kts and waves from the NE of 2ft in the anchorage.
Two dives this morning in cold water. First dive, visibility of 60ft and temperature of 20c and no current, but in the cleaning station there were more than 30 sharks, a least 10 large galapagos and 20 silvertips, 2 blacktips and some hammerheads in the distance. All divers kneeling around the cleaning station and suddenly everything went dark, we looked up to see what was happening and surprise a Whale Shark of 14 meters passing over our heads.
Second dive conditions improved a little vis 80ft and temperature 22c. The same action in the cleaning station many Galapagos and silvertips and in the middle of the water a school of 60 or more hammerheads passed from one side to the other and at the end a Tiger Shark went through the cleaning station and at the safety stop 3 Chevron mantas played with the divers. All are very happy and looking forward to returning to dive after the lunch. All guests diving today, no guests and crew issues today, no new deficiencies today, and all the equipment is working properly. Planing two more dive in the afternoon at the canyon.
