Today we arrived back to San Benedicto Island, and we had our fingers crossed that the Current Gods would be kind to us on Christmas Day and bless us with the opportunity to dive The Boiler, one of the National Geographic 100 Dives of a Lifetime. Also today, we had two divers who would be […]

Mantas, chevron and black, at least 5 at the same time. Around the two cleaning stations a pod of ten dolphins and an inquisitive hammerhead shark.

We descended right down to the cleaning stations and were greeted by a school of juvenile silvertip sharks, 2 chevron mantas, a hammerhead, and lots of cool fish.

Scopolamine Patches Making for a Comfortable Day in Bigger Seas

We are at sea today enroute from Cabo San Lucas/San Jose del Cabo to San Benedicto Island with the roughest weather we have seen this season. There was a big honking storm with humongous seas off the Oregon/California coast a couple of days ago and we are getting the residual wave train of 7 to 8 feet on a fairly long period. The ride on the good ‘ol Nautilus Explorer isn’t bad but we are getting the occasional haystack where the energy of waves from different directions converges and literally piles up into a column of water, as well as potholes where the opposite happens and you get a deep trough.
