Real nice pictures did it stay around or just do a swim by to tease you.
Is there a lot of reported sighting in your area?
My wife wants us to head for cosumal but montaray may be in my dive Planer
 
Nice pictures, and great encounter with the Mola Mola.

Thanks for sharing.
 
Wow, way cool he came back around for you to be able to catch some great pics!
The Kelp crab on the coral was a cool pic too.
 
Ok people, I don't mean to be a nag or anything, and I know I am kinda new around here.

This is a real distress call... I must dive... pleeaassseee anyone, I am in desperate need for a buddy. tommorow, the next day... the sea is so flat now ... help :help:
 
I am feeling the same way after reading the reports the last few days...will be going Thursday around Salt Point though.
 
Amazing encounter. I've never seen a live one in the ocean, let along get some nice shots of one like you did. Very cool.

After the last pic, it kept coasting in that direction for maybe 5-10 seconds. Then, it gave two big thrusts and it was gone in a flash. Those suckers can really move when they want to.
I heard of a lot of sightings in September, and was hoping to see one then. But by this time, I had completely given up that idea.
 
Dove N. Monastery. It was sunny and really calm (up to 7' WEST swell 14 second interval about 2' wind wave)
Vis was good at least 40' in some areas. Highlight of the dive was a small mola mola at 110'. Also saw a few metridiums.
