Yesterday we finished our dive in Roca with two wonderful dives we could see false killer whales around the rock maybe because there were a lot of tunas and of course, a lot of sharks, Galapagos sharks, and reef fish. Roca Partida yesterday was full of marine life. Once we finished with the dive we picked up the anchor and we started our way to Cabo Pearce, all the way to Pearce was pretty smooth.

he last two days have been dolphins and mantas galore! In the last seven dives, we have been lucky enough to be joined by dolphins on four and mantas on four. Yesterday, we were joined by a group of nine dolphins on the first dive just after our group got into the water. They stayed and played for a little while, swimming in circles around us and coming within inches of us. After about 10 minutes they swam off, but we were not sad about the dolphins leaving for long as we were soon after joined by a manta.

As we were leaving the deeper water, coming out of the Boiler, I had just sent up my SMB when a huge sailfish came straight up from the deep, preparing to go for the SMB!! So cool, and such a surprise! It took a couple turns around the floating SMB with its sail out and then took off. IT WAS SO BIG! Not long after we had a fat, good-sized Tiger shark checking us out. She was in no rush but kept a bit off in the distance.
