These stunning, giant creatures have the same brain to body ratio as we do, 5:1, and it makes me wonder if they are able to recognize us as well.

With every dive my ability to recognize individual mantas is getting better and better. These stunning, giant creatures have the same brain to body ratio as we do, […]

Weather picked up, winds decided to blow and we were off to start our second day at Roca Partida. A we launched the skiffs at 0630, a large splash towards Roca caught my eye. Humpback whales again! After yesterdays orca attack on the poor calf, I assumed the whales would have departed the rock to […]

Waking up at 6am to get ready for a dive seems way to early. As the sun rises and you see the sky turn orange and pink the excitement builds for what awaits us under the calm seas. Suit up, jump in the skiff and we are off to the site. Roll in and immediately […]
