scuba board 2.jpgscuba board 1.jpgDive Report from Cabo San Lucas June 23rd 2011 from Baja Dive.
Water Temps still a chilly 68 Degrees at the surface and 63 Degrees at 60 feet. Wind blowing from the north at 8Mph.
Current was from the North to the South but really Mild. Very little surge.
Vis. At Santa Maria was 30 feet .Whales Head 25 feet.North wall to the Point was 10 to 12 feet getting better.
Now that the storm has passed we should see better Vis in the coming week.The wonderful influx of Tropical Marine Life has continued today so nobody minds the low Vis.

Hey Divers,Water temp today was 68 Degrees at the Surface and 65 Degrees at 60 feet.Vis Was 10 to 15 feet at most local sites and a little better at 60 feet.
Wind was from the North at 8 MPH.
Were all wondering how long this cool Influx of Tropical Marine life will last. I Ask some of the long time Divers here and none of them have ever seen this before.
Well im going to enjoy it as long as its here.We have seen some of the biggest Lobster ever and really big Parrotfish.Lots of white Nudibranch,Cortez Angel,Puffers the size of Basket Balls. One Diver reported see what he thought was a Angler Fish these are normally found at 2000 feet.
Good Diving to all
