Comments	Cabo Pulmo was only a short stop in a two week tour of the Region, and I was aware prior to arrival, that this time of year would not offer the best conditions (colder water, poorer viz, and more wind) than other times of year. None the less, my dives with Carmel , an Israeli born multilingual guide were fun and interesting shallow (30-45 ft) reef dives (reef being a relative term: mostly rock and scattered coral growing on it here and there) We saw schools of Jacks, lots of Puffers, a school of bat rays soaring above, many guitarfish (rays) in the sand, large bump heads, a rock mover wrasse, scorpion fish etc. Between dives, we chased down, and got close to Grey whales: a Mom and 1 or 2 calves, that were obligingly breaching and showing tail. I also snorkeled in a huge school of Jacks. One dive reminded me of New England- cold with 15 foot viz- well I guess that's a good day in New England! Carmel had a friend's digital camera with housing, and kindly e-mailed me some pictures of our dives, and the whales, that turned out quite well. The rental gear was decent, the pangas well made (they drag them up on a rocky beach- they must be tough) but minimal. Our rental Casita with kitchen and great shower was really nice and a 2 minute walk to the beach. No bugs this time of year (though the bed had mosquito netting) And always fabulous stars in the desert.
