The operation is quite flexible with the sites being chosen according to where the divers had been already. Not that there is a great choice of sites. This is my third visit at this time of year and I have been with Sunshine each time. The temperature was typical although the visibility was the worst of my visits. Lots of fish both in variety and numbers. Sea horse, octopus, white tips etc Being a slack time the number of customers varied from just me to 6. So it was just me and the DM Carlos several times. We dove more like buddies except he knew the way back to the boat. I have indicated that I saw a whale shark. This was on a special trip to La Paz where we taken out on a panga and snorkelled when it came close. We often saw whales during the surface interval as it was migration time. |
