In the second half of the trip, the wind seemed to get stronger, so
On the second day of diving, I moved to ROCA PARTIDA and did three dives.

After all, I can’t see the gorgeousness like the old days again this time. but,
Keep a close eye on Galapagos sharks, silvertips, and tuna.

Jan 25th, 2023 Isla Socorro ( Punta tosca )
I started diving at Punta Tosca, except for one manta and a dolphin.
The ocean situation is not good enough, so I rounded up here with two. Clarity 10 mts, water temperature 23ºC.
After finishing the navy inspection, the third one moved to CABO PIERCE.
This is a fun one as the manta rays come close to the divers.

Continuing from yesterday, CABO PIERCE today.
A very satisfying day with 4 manta rays !!
Jan 27th, 2023 Isla San Benedicto ( El Cañón )
The two runs in the morning were hit by strong currents, and the transparency was around 5 mts.
It’s pretty bad and disappointing. Conditions improved rapidly in the afternoon.
For Hammer, Silver Tip, White Tip, Galapagos, Dusky
In addition, tiger sharks ♪♪♪
Jan 28th, 2023 Isla San Benedicto ( El Boiler )
During the trip, this day was by far the best condition.
Clarity 30 mts! Water temperature 24ºC.
Tiger sharks will come out again, manta rays, hammers and
Enjoy 3 dives that are unique to Socorro where big fish appear one after another.
On the final day, I was finally able to show Socorro’s ability.
The guide also takes a breather.
