Manta Rays in the Galapagos

Galapagos Islands

By Holidays No Comments

22 of us have just returned from one of the best diving holidays so far – to the Galapagos islands.  We based ourselves in Santa Cruz, San Cristobal and Isabela, and dives some cracking sites, such as Gordon Rocks, Kicker Rock and many more.  Sea lions, Hammerheads, King Manta Rays, Galapagos sharks, the weird Red Lipped Bat fish, more rays, more sharks …. the list goes on and on.

Thank you to everyone who came on the trip who helped to make it so amazing.  The question is, how do we top that next year …… you will have to wait and see!

The boat is the most recently constructed of the Blue O Two luxury fleet. 37m long with double and twin cabins for 24 people, it is extremely spacious and comfortable with an enormous dive deck. Read More

I have managed to upload a short 4 minute clip straight from the camera taken on the SS Thistlegorm while swimming through one side of the holds in the middle deck area. This is totally unedited except for the edition of some cheesy music courtesy of You Tube and is taken 4 days after I started using the camera and housing so I was still learning basically. For those who have never dived the SS Thistlegorm this gives you some idea of what an awesome dive it is.
