This trip is completely different so far. Not only glimpses but a few up-close views of Hammerheads and Galapagos sharks with 1-6 seen on every dive. A group of Silver Tips & several mantas were seen during the day…

The first dive at Roca was amazing with huge tuna diving in and out of the schools of fish. Saw a couple of Galapagos sharks as well. Looking forward to see what shows up tomorrow! Hoping for some mantas!

Cada dia conseguimos nuestro deseo. Cada una de las tres islas volcanicas parece ser la promesa de un mar digno de esos espectaculares animales.

First dive at Roca Partida was amazing; I have never seen that amount of underwater life. We were for an hour in the blue with more sharks you can count, from various species such as Galapagos, Hammerheads, Silver/White tips and so on.

Wonderful manta shows throughout the trip on San Benedicto island and Socorro island. Schooling hammerheads at Roca Partida. And a whale shark on the second dive of the trip!

And the best thing about these creatures is that they interact with us! Playing with our bubbles, gliding over our heads, staring into our eyes… Moments of pure magic!
