Hello everyone, yesterday afternoon, Roca teemed with life, with lots of reef fish. The mantas were even more curious, coming much closer to the divers, making for beautiful dives. During cocktail hour, some guests shared videos of their day’s footage with us.

After finishing operations, we weighed anchor and began our journey to Socorro. This morning, we arrived at 7:00 AM, anchored, and began our operation.

For the first dive, visibility was great, we saw a couple of mantas, as well as a small school of hammerhead sharks (though not everyone saw them), and a huge school of bonito stalking the dolphins.

On the second dive, many more guests were able to see the hammerhead sharks.

On the second dive, guest Maurice completed his 300th dive, and the chef prepared a dessert to celebrate. When he was returning, we notified the hosts, and they had a surprise waiting for him on the dive deck.

We have one more dive planned, followed by the routine navy inspection, and once that’s finished, we’ll begin sailing to the Boiler.

Crew and guests doing fine.
