The sea was flat and our passage was smooth as we headed south to Cabo Pulmo this week, our guests eagerly anticipating their first dives in the
marine park. We started our dive at the southern end of the site and desended through a large crowd of Pacific Creolefish, a great introduction. With
visibility of 30-40 feet and bottom temperatures ranging from 70' - 72' Fahrenheit, we made our way along the reef; I was having to shoo the
Balloonfish away with my hands to make headway, they were everywhere! Lots of Guitarfish were found as we peered under ledges, and several large
Diamond Stingrays were resting out in the sand. Leopard and Golden Grouper had congregated in their hundreds, this dive just kept getting better and
better. Plumes of Yellow Snapper gleamed from afar, beckoning us towards them whilst high above a solitary Golden Cownosed Ray almost managed to
stealthily pass by unnoticed. Finally time to ascend, as luck would have it, straight into a huge swirling mass of Big Eyed Jacks. They totally
enveloped us, " I felt like I was in a beautiful dream. The movement of the fish was like silver mercury, with big kind eyes! ", enthused one
contented diver back on the boat.
