40 years of diving brought myself to this fantastic day of diving on San Benedicto Island a solo personal encounter with four wild dolphins surrounding me at 40 feet ascending from the Canyon ridge.

Who would have known!! Turn around days for any liveaboard dive boat are very busy and if you were wathcing, it probably looks hectic, it really is organized chaos! Reprovishing, fueling, cleaning the inside/outside for the arrival of the next group of happy divers. Squeezing in all the repairs and regular preventative maintenance needed. I […]

TELL US ABOUT YOUR DIVES! Mantas, Mantas, Mantas! The Boiler is fantastic for Mantas. They actually seem to like interactions with us humans. A very special and humbling experience. Sailed to Roca Partida and saw whales breeching and fin slapping. Underwater was crystal clear with abundant White Tip Reef Sharks, Galapagos Sharks, Jacks, and fishes. […]

Roca Partida is one of those magical places that exist in our dreams. We have had the pleasure of spending two full days of diving around “The Rock”. Now remember it is also smack dab in the middle of nowhere close to land or shelter, it is exposed to all the elements at hand. I […]

We arrived at the remote Clarion Island early this morning after an overnight transit from Roca Partida. Clarion is the 4th island in the Revillagigedo chain of islands, commonly known as the Socorro Islands. We rarely get a chance to dive here, so we are still in the exploration stage at Clarion. Today after checking […]

One of the joys of this trip is getting up early to watch the last of the night sky with brilliant stars and even shooting stars, and the early chat of birds on Roca Partida. Mexico.

Que nos creiamos? Que no quedan delfines para bucear con ellos? Que son pocos los sitios donde ˆsin ser una piscina- puedes bucear con ellos? Solo queda una cosa por decir! Aqui estaban! Han venido esta manana a saludarnos, y nos han hecho mil y una monerias! No ha sido un simple paso, te saludo, […]
