Mantas appeared in numbers on all the dives then the dolphins showed up and finally two whale sharks. The Mantas put on the most graceful of performances to the whistles and clicks from the dolphins.

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!

Our first dive day kicked off with great conditions – calm seas above and excellent visibility below. A mild current over the volcanic rock ridge brought early sightings of large scalloped hammerhead sharks and a couple curious manta rays…

Tauchen mit der Crew der Belle Amie war einfach fantastisch. Zuerst aber zum Tauchen, welches eine Klasse fuer sich ist. Delfine, die mit einen spielen wollen und auf einen zu schwimmen, Schulen von Hammerhaien…

There was a school of hammerhead sharks in 80 ft of depth, and bait balls of skip jacks. To finish our day at Roca we had a great visitor: a whale shark! It was not a big one, but still impressive. Socorro did not let us down!

What an amazing trip!!! These days were awesome in the Archipelago. The marine life that this place has to offer is unbelievable…Especially when the mantas and dolphins interacted with us today at Boiler.
