Last day on the rock (Roca Partida) and first dive there was schools of hammerhead sharks. No current so we sat at the point and watched the show go by. Hammers were around 120 feet deep and up, a large school of them seen several times. There are so many, many fish in these waters. […]

Our first day at the South end of San Benedicto was a good start to our trip. On the first dive we saw mantas, dolphins and hammerhead sharks. Talk about a great beginning.

Roca Partida Day 2 Dive 1 Jan 4.2012 Something different on each dive. It is amazing that we can dive the same underwater seamount for 8 dives and never have the same experience twice. The ecosystem here is in constant flux as are the animals that inhabit it. The populations of sharks, dolphins, and fish […]

Dive 3 Jan 1.2012 How do you describe the indescribable? As I type this I can still hear the soundtrack that was playing in my mind during our last dive at the Boiler. It was like a peaceful slow moving dream.  Floating weightless in clear rich blue water with 100 foot visibility. The pinnacle known […]
