Celebrate - Sharks, Turtles and Rays (Oh My!)



It was a spectacular scuba trip to Gordon Rocks with two excellent dives. The rocks rise directly from about 100' depth so it's a wall dive and is open directly to ocean swell and currents.

The appearance of a school of hammerhead sharks was accompanied by a flukey-current blast of ice-water which made the visibility shimmer. These currents are what make for stunning Galapagos diving by bringing deep water nutrients to the Islands. Also, I got an up-close view of a large sea-turtle that swam away into a dead-end crevice in the rock wall and then had to spend time getting turned around so he could leave. It was very interesting to watch.

The dive was topped off with a school of rays as well as a huge variety of reef-fish.
