Comments The trip was about 2 hours beacsue the ocean was initially a bit choppy. we arrived at Cano Island and our first dive site was Bajo Diablo. Schools of fish were everywhere and saw some really nice schools of Jacks. Had a very nice lunch on the beach and then headed back out to the second site. Numerous white tip reef sharks here on the sand and swimming around. lots of schools of different fish and also a couple of stingrays. saw some awesome coral formations on this second site aswell. The journey back was broken up with sightings of about 4 different schools of dolphins. Overall a super day out and some great diving.
