Captainโ€™s Noon Reports โ€“ Explorer โ€“ 2024-08-14

Moored in wafer bay 05.32.704N โ€“ 087.03.968W, is a beautiful day, little rain light N breeze, cloudy skies flat seas, the boat sits steady, going to the dive site is a different story, we had some 3Ft waves and little wind, but okay.

Today ocean is 82F, air is 82F, we had a light current and some surge, visibility averages 80F, loads and loads of fish we did Dos Amigos Grande and Dos Amigos small for first and second dives

Big Dos Amigos has an arch, you can almost fit the explorer in it, the top of the arch is in 50 feet and the bottom is in 100Ft. In the arch there are some cracks where huge lobsters live, also in the arch snappers, goat fish and soldier made their home, in the ceiling of the arch the barber fish are upside down which is kind of cool to see, we got couple of hammers lots of white tip reef sharks.

Our second dive in the big rock was amazing, we had hammerheads and Galapagos sharks from starting to end, it was a nonstop parade, they were getting cleaned by the barber fish, after 20 minutes an oceanic black tip shark passed by, but what made this dive pretty special was the 5mts tiger shark it came just about our heads and only three of the guests saw it clearly.

Towards the end of the dive two of the guests saw a manta, all of this while the other group was having a great time with a manta in the other dive side. After lunch we took the guests for some leg stretching to the island they are almost back and soon they will be going to the third dive.
