After the dives, we picked up anchor and when we were on our way to the next anchorage we spotted a big pod of bottlenose dolphins. What was amazing about this encounter was that there were just playing in one spot. We went over with the inflatables and we went snorkeling with them. This time the dolphins seemed to be pleased with the presence of the snorkelers and stayed around for more than an hour and a half. Swimming right next to us.

We dove into the shallow reef next to the sea lion colony where we could swim and interact with some sea lions and got to see very close the big males.
Read MoreThis is my first expedition to the Sea of Cortez and I have to admit the Golf ROCKS. The diving is great, loads of very interactive sea lions, an incredible amount of tropical fishes, sea turtles, nudibranchs and if you are lucky sea horses… and during sailing, you can see and snorkel with dolphins or mobulas…
Read MoreThe dives have been really nice. I did not expect to dives to be so nice. I love finding small creatures to show to our guests and here I have plenty of opportunities to do this. We have found a lot of nudibranchs and even a seahorse. Besides diving and snorkeling with a big pod of dolphins, the landscapes are breathtaking. I love to see the desert mountains right next to all the different colors of blue and turquoise of the sea. And then the sunsets, one of the most beautiful I have ever seen.
Read MoreToday we went ding on the wreck Fang Ming next to the island Espiritu Santo. We had another awesome dive. The visibility was good. There were so many groupers on this dive. Other than all the other colorful fish, like Cortez Angel Fish, Snappers, Butterfly fish amongst others. But what made the dive were the three turtles scratching themselves on the bow area. Now we go to a shallow reef to see if we can find some Nudibranch.
Read MoreToday they were delighted with a treat: a 3 hour snorkel with the gentle giants, the biggest fish in the ocean: the whale sharks of Bahia de Los Angeles! More than six different whale sharks were feeding around the panga and the divers were able to get some close encounters with these 20 to 30 feet long harmless and beautiful sharks, an unforgettable experience for all of them!
Read MoreSo far our Sea of Cortez revenge trip is going phenomenal. We left Cabo the night of the 16th where we had smooth sailing all the way to the first location. Punta Arena de la Ventana.
