This morning has been very good for our divers, they are all very happy since during both dives they could see more than five different manta rays and a pod of dolphins with a baby dolphin.

Divemasters also found octopus on the rocks and some of the guests were pleased about it. We are going to make one more dive here then go to The Canyon for the final dive of the week.

We had about 15 dolphins swimming around, hammerhead sharks and three manta rays.

Here in the bay early this morning, there were lots of mobulas everywhere. I would say in the thousands spread out through the bay. Some smaller groups congregate.

On the second dive we dropped the divers off at Manta Rock – excellent dive, lots of sharks, divers had encounters with many hammerheads, school of Galapagos sharks, silvertips, whitetips, silky, school of tuna and jacks and scattered wahoos.

Beautiful morning at San Benedico. Clear blue sky with calm wind and smooth seas at the anchorage area. Our first dive (checkout dive) at the Fundadero it was just beautiful. We had a manta hanging around us and she was saying welcome to San Benedicto island!!
We saw some white tips that were sleeping on the bottom and some Galapagos sharks.
Then we picked up the anchor and we sailed directly to the boiler ,the Nautilus Under Sea is anchored next to us , the second dive was just amazing!! We had mantas hanging around us, those beautiful animals stole the show and also we saw a big turtle around the rock as well a few hammerheads and Galapagos sharks.
