First Dive was at Middle wall Great Dive Looking Down into the Submarine Canyon from 90 feet was awsome Vis was 80 feet so swiming over the tops gives you the feeling of flying over Canyons.These Canyons go as Deep as 2500 meters.They were created when Baja Was separted from the Main Land millions of years ago.This is my favorite Dive so many Big Fish here and the best place to see the Eagle Rays.
Water Temp 80 at the surface and 76 at 90 feet. Wind from the north at 3mph.No Current and no surge.
2nd Dive at South Wall here you will find large Rock formations stuck in the Sand like Islands With lots of Eels, Nudebranchs,Lobsters,This Dive makes you feel like your the only Diver out there.
 
Dive Report from Cabo San Lucas July 30th Hi Divers today we made a Special Dive to The Chimney a site that not many Divers have ever seen.This is a 90 foot Dive That starts at Neptunes Finger where there is a rock reef at 65 feet great place to see Turtles and always big grouper and lobster also home the the giant sand slide.This is a place where the sand slides down the slope to the edge of the Canyon wall and shoots out into the Canyon really a sight to see.As you continue down along the wall we come to the Chimney at 90 feet a cool rock formation that you can look up into just like a Chimney.We saw two Hammer Heads on the way there.
Vis was 70 to 80 feet.Water Temp 80 Degrees at The Surface and 76 Degrees at 90 feet.

Dive Report From Cabo San Lucas July 31st
Hi Divers,Todays 1st. Dive was at the Sea Lions Colony.Vis was great 75 feet.Wated Temp 80 Degrees at the surface. 77 Degrees at 60 feet. As soon as we were in the water the three Sea Lions zoomed right over to check us out.One came right to us and sat down just 3 feet away then zoomed away only to return in just a few seconds later with the look of Hey what are you guys waiting for?Lets all zoom around.
As we continued to the point there was thousands of Tropical Fish everywhere.
Just before turning to go over to the wreck we saw a school of the smaller Rays that numberd in the Hundreds.
At the wreck 4 Sea Lions joined us swiming around us and playing.
The wreck is a Lime Stone carrier that hit the last rock in 1918 and sank right away. The main part sank in deeper water just south of where the 40 foot bow section now sits bow up in the sand. Because of the currents here nothing grows on this part of the Wreck.
2nd Dive Was at the Peligan Rock also great Vis and warm water. This is the Dive if you want to see hundreds of Different species of Tropical Fish,Mirco life,Sea Fans.
Divers saw Nudebranchs,Frogfish,Parrotfish,Trumpetfish,Cortez Angles,Morish idols and lots of Big Green Morys.
Good Diving to all.
