Hi all,
I'm traveling in South America and am currently in Colombia, and will soon be heading down to Ecuador. I've already been diving around Colombia's Caribbean coast and am looking for suggestions on where to dive on the Pacific coast instead (and in which of those countries).
Obvious choice would of course be the Galapagos isles, but those may unfortunately be out of our budget for now... So is there some poor man's Galapagos Islands along the Pacific coast that we should consider?
Some info:

Some info:
- It'll be me and my girlfriend, both advanced owd with a little over 100 dives. We've got some experience with heavier currents (Komodo). We prefer warmer diving but realise that may be hard around there. No experience with drysuits.
- We'd love to see big stuff, mainly hammerheads, mantas and/or whale sharks.
- This would likely be for some time in February.
