A blue whale. The worlds largest animal! |
August 22 - We had
smooth sailing through the night and passed customs in Ensenada. About an hour
outside Ensenada we spotted some dolphins and a few blue whales. The largest
animal on earth, just a few yards away from the boat.
And then......... Shaaaaaaaaark!
We spotted a shark fin cruising on the surface and didn't know at first, what kind of shark it was. A mako? A Great White? Upon examining the photos, it was a juvenile Great White Shark!Maybe 3-4ft. just a tiny shark, cruising on the surface for a while.

So now we're cruising towards Guadalupe. The Ocean is flat calm, very nice indeed.
August 23 - We had 3 sharks today with some close passes in
the afternoon. One of the Sharks we
saw has not been seen in 3 years! It's great to have our old friends back.
August 24 - Another great day of Sharking! 6 known sharks
along a few unidentified ones. Everyone got to look into a sharks eyes and had
him look back. That's probably the experience that hooked me on sharkdiving
some 11 years ago. There is no other experience quite like that. If you haven't
been there, you just have to come out and see
for yourself!
August 25 - Today was
great again. It's amazing, how these sharks come by our vessel day after day!
The ride home is starting out smooth as well. Another amazing trip!
