Just to have that privilege of diving with the big Pacific mantas and sharks, wow! The last day of diving in the Sea of Cortez, La Reina was so amazing, with nice rock formations, and sea lions swimming around you.

It was a wonderful way of saying goodbye to Roca Partida: lonely hammerheads; school of big jacks, white tip sharks – juvenile & really big ones.

After an uneventful crossing, with light winds and a little chop, this week of diving started out with an epic day at San Benedicto Island.  Prior to our 2nd breakfast, we had an early, first dive at the Canyon.  Non-morning person, squeaky wheels, were quieted within the first 5 minutes by dolphin and giant mantas.  […]

With the Sun rising creating a spectacular swirl of pink and orange, as we have our breakfast and dive briefing, still wiping the sleep out of our eyes.  Nothing like simply waking up and being at your new dive destination, even though 80 or so miles away. The Swell at Roca partida can be on […]

Roca Partida as we know it from the surface is a guano covered rock extending about 100 feet into the air and about 200 feet in length, poking up out of the pacific ocean 60 nautical miles from the nearest island of Socorro. In the bigger picture it is the very tip, the last second […]
