“It felt like being right in a National Geographic documentary”
Read More“This is the calmest ocean I’ve ever seen out here, and I’ve been on countless trips to Socorro”, chef Steve on the Gallant Lady announced, while serving an absolute delicious breakfast. Only moments later, Captain Adrian interrupted our meal, announcing dolphins through the radio. Everybody rushed out on deck, to witness a unique natural spectacle. Bottlenose dolphins were jumping out of the water as far as we could see, surrounding us and following us at the tip of the boat.

Time flies when watching sharks
Read MoreTime files! Our first liveaboard trip for the great whites is going to have a happy ending soon…In the previous days we have had a wonderful time with the crews and the great white sharks! The crew members are great, they woke up early around 6:00 am everyday and started to bait the sharks. The better thing is they have a secret tuna soup for attracting the great whites, which brings us a close shot with the sharks! All the foods & beverage drinks are amazing as well as the fantastic hot tub. So in Chinese, this trip is “Ta…

A visit from Slashfin, the great white shark.
Read MoreFirst dive on the last day was by far the best yet. Slashfin was around for the entire dive and we were even lucky enough to see a fur seal diving and dancing among the mackerel. Can’t wait to get back into the water! –Michael G. & Casey G. Absolutely amazing trip, the experience of a lifetime! Every time we got in the cage we got a shark, sometimes more than one, at one point four at the same time!

Unidentified Male Shark?
Read MoreA good morning ended around 10 am when the sharks disappeared for a few hours. When we got in the lower cages at 12:50 the action was starting to get better, and we had an awesome 30 minutes with 4 sharks making the rounds down deep. We were constantly on our toes spinning around to find where they were coming from next. The a few of the sharks stayed around most of the day, including Sad Face, and a male we have not yet ID’d, though it has two identifiable scars on its back currently. Afternoon action on the surface…

Sharks, Dolphins, Weather…Steak?
Read MoreToday was our 2nd day at Guadalupe, great day, we did see about 8 different individual great white sharks, as well as 7 dolphins and 2 turtles. The topography of the island is beautiful with clouds being born and cascading down the dramatic cliff faces into the sea, it is incredible weather with very calm seas. At dinner our guest say they do not want to go back to port, I think is not for the sharks, it was because Kike our chef makes a delicious steak…though I enjoyed the desserts more! Tomorrow will be the last day with these…
