This phenomenon in itself is a beautiful sight to see and I was happily taking it in on the bow when I noticed two streams of the flashing lights darting and weaving in front of the bulbous bow. Dolphins. It was too dark to see the creatures themselves but they raced through the water, slicing […]

Punta Tosca was a little demanding for the first two dives, the price for enjoying the mantas and a couple of good hammerheads was some good current, after that we decide to dive inside the bay and it was just fantastic, 7 dolphins escorted by a couple of very friendly mantas made for an excellent day!
