Hello everyone.
Yesterday afternoon ended very well. The last dive was at the zoo; not everyone went, but those who did came back amazed by the number of lobsters there. They also saw quite a few whitetip and silvertip sharks. It’s an interesting dive site.
After that, we began sailing towards Cape Pearce, arriving at 2300 hrs and anchoring.
This morning, during the dives, only the last group saw a young whale shark during their safety stop. It circled them for quite a while and then disappeared into the blue. Mariana, who was the DG, told me it was magical.
We set out in the pangas as soon as we were told to try and show it to the rest of the group, but we didn’t find it. Hopefully, we’ll see it on another dive.
We plan to do one more dive, go on the Navy Inspection, and then sail to Roca Partida.
