Back in Cabo san Lucas with a day to kill, so I might as well dive again. If you are not a partier, there is nothing to do here on land but eat and sleep, best I can tell. So I went out with SeeCreatures again, the sister company for the Nautilus live aboard company. […]
For our last day of diving, we went to The Boiler, a submerged seamount that is just off San Benedicto Island. This again is supposed to be the place for the giant Mantas, and it did not disappoint. For these dives I used the SportDiver housing with the 2500 and 5000+ lights.
Roca Partida is a small “parted rock” covered in guano that juts up from the deep ocean floor. Due to many boats around the small area, we could only do 3 dives here so as to not over stress the small environment. This was supposed to be the place for multiple Manta Rays, but I […]
The second stop on the trip was Socorro Island, the biggest island and the only active volcanic island in the archipelago currently. We spent 2 days here at two different sites: Cabo Pearce and Punta Tosca, and did a total of 7 dives. This is where we started to see the giant Manta Rays. There […]

The crossing was not too bad for me, but a few folks got seasick. The night sky on the open ocean was, as expected, spectacular. The boat is the […]
2nd day of local diving in Cabo San Lucas. Brr. The water is cold here. Had some great Humpback Whale viewing from the boat (no pics). I used the SportDiver housing on this dive with 2500 and 5000+ lights.
So a break from Maui diving. I am heading out on a live aboard trip to Socorro Island, Mexico, with the Nautilus Belle Amie. I leave this evening, Tuesday Feb 14. But I arrived in Cabo on Sunday, so I had a couple of days to dive locally in Cabo, and I have an hour […]
