Everyone had silent moment to pray for save evacuation & speedy recovery of the guest with medical problem. Captain Ramon & one of the guest who is a medical doctor, assisted the medic during the evacuation process.
After the medical evacuation, the Chef prepared Taco night dinner on Sun deck, followed with Silky Shark night snorkeling.
We are staying in Socorro for the night and plan to spend Dive Day 2 in Socorro (Cabo Pearce?) with the following itinerary:

Saw schooling Hammerheads in the blue, Manta circling above us, Silky & Galápagos in the shallow towards the end of the dive, welcoming us to Cabo Pearce, Socorro.

On 2nd dive on Dive Day 2 we saw pretty much the same fishes as on the 1st dive. Some of us saw the wall of hammerheads while I was videoing mantas.
On 3rd dive I spent more time looking out in the blue and this time saw the schooling of 50+ hammerheads.

Yes. That’s her.
What a great day of diving. In addition to the fish we saw previously in the earlier dives, we saw 12-ft. whaleshark swimming by about 4 x + octopus on the 4th dive.
Sweet. We saw a whale shark on our last day of diving after seeing dolphins, sharks and mantas. Dive of a lifetime. Socorro is so amazing.
