DEAR
FRIENDS,
August 30, 2010
No hurricane hit so we are back on track.. Here
are few pictures of some of the marine life we have been seeing
in Gordo Banks lately. We have been lucky. Being in open water is
like a box of chocolates (excuse the cliché) ... but you never
know what you will get!
Come and dive!
Cheers,
Melissa

HELLO!
June 28, 2010

Diving in Gordo Banks is just getting better day by day. We are seeing hammerheads
on every dive, seems that our friends the marlins are letting themselves show
off as well. We even saw 2 silky sharks 2 days
ago. Gordo is The dive spot, and right now it's HOT!
We are also doing a nice trip starting with Gordo and then heading to
another reef closer, this might be appealing too, we are open to a whole
of different opinions and you could actually make your dive trip plan,
check with me about that at mantascuba@gmail.com, I will be more than
happy to organize something with you.
Here is a pic of the latest dive trip I went to, in Cabo Pulmo, great
water this day, and a bunch of happy divers.
Cheers!
Melissa
HI!
June 28, 2010
Just
wanted to do a quick update regarding the most recent trips to Gordo Banks
the East Cape. We have been seeing a lot of hammerheads and the waters have
been busy with schools of pork fish, huge amber jacks, goats, one pacific
manta... Well yes, the waters have been busy!
Hope you can join us in these trips, the East Cape is becoming more popular and a nice option to combine so many different sites in one trip!

Hope to see you soon!

HEY DIVERS!

The week's report for the expeditions...

Cabo Pulmo was nice with lots of life and strong currents, and a Whale
Shark sited on the third dive today!
We saw in Gordo Banks: Hammenrheads on 2 of the 3 trips, tons of marine
life and nice rides with marlins jumping, dolphins, whales!
In the local diving, Nacho and John met the white tip shark face to face
on the night dive.
We miss Claudio our star instructor ;), but he will be back soon from
a well earned holliday in Argentina...
Looking forward to hear from you!
Melissa
HELLO!
May 12, 2010
Back after some great hollidays and I bump into a bunch of good news,
since we started running our annual trips to Cabo Pulmo and Gordo Banks
it all has been good news.
Gordo: tons of fish with 1 Hammerhead, clear water from 0-60 ft and deeper
then 80 ft on the last dive trip there which was less than a week ago.
Baby whale shark in Pulmo today with great water temp of 75f and good
vis!
Local sites have been cool also, with white tip reef shark, some sea
lions playing around and water temp changin from 70 to a surprisingly
75 and back again.
I'll be looking forward to hear from you for our full day trips.
Cheers!
Melissa

Summer trips are starting...
First trip of the season to Gordo Banks was a success with good conditions, tons
of fish and marine life and the highlight of the trip: Giant pacific Manta on
the 2nd dive and 40ft Whale shark swimming around the boat between dives...what
a day !!!
In the local area, dives have been good as well with lots of fish, clear
and cold water, baby whale shark a week ago...

Just a quick note to show our gratitude to all of you, the ones
that make Manta still in operation. We would like to thank so many people
it would probably take us pages and pages but you all know who you are.
Thanks again to all the MANTA STAFF that makes the job easy and fun,
thanks to Eric for the great videos, thanks to all the clients
again, thanks for your suggestions that make us grow.
We wish you a 2010 full of health and a Merry Christmas full
of joy to you all,

HI!
October 29, 2009
So we hadn’t been successful in the past couple of trips to Gordo
Banks and I was starting to be little bit worried that hammerheads
might had just… disappeared?! ... that was, ok… until today
when our animal lover DM Luis came with 3 very happy divers from Gordo proud
to say they saw big and I mean big schools of them.
Next trip to Gordo Banks : Sunday November 1st.
I am happy, we all knew October and November are the best seasons for Gordo Banks, too bad we didn’t bring one of our photographers to the sites but hopefully we can get some shots from them soon.
But to make it up to you , check the video below… diving at 20’ with the little sardine run at Pelican rock…sooo relaxing… isn’t it?

HEY!
September 21, 2009
Have been little out of the scene for the past few weeks, finally got
back in the water (the 5th time this year!) and it was great, I still
need to go and see the sea lions but we are finaly diving with them again,
take a look a the video below.
The season is getting better and just as a reminder October is the best
time to dive Gordo Banks.
Email us when you have a chance.

WE DIDN'T
GET HIT!
September 3, 2009
So don't worry bout the diving!, we are operating after 2 days of the
port being closed, and to prove it we are conducting a trip to Gordo
Banks this Sunday. Cabo is fine, we didn't have any damages besides some
strong winds and some rain ( we needed that though!).
Come and join us diving and enjoy Cabo!
Best,
Melissa
IT'S NOT ALWAYS THE BIG ONES!
August 31, 2009
Diving in the Sea of Cortez lets you experience the pellagics, the wild
side of the ocean, hammerheads, other sharks, marlin, and rays. But let's
not forget also about the little ones, the ones that make the dives diverse
and fun, this is what we like about Cabo, we can find so many diferent
families.
It's a nice contrast. Same as how the desert and the sea join,you can
find from a tiny nudy branch to a beautiful kind of shark.
Water is warm warm warm!! aroudn 84-86.



Cheers!
Melissa
TIGER AND
BULL SHARKS... COMING BACK?!
August 17, 2009
Or they never left... the important thing is that they are here
again! Two trips in a row, same site, Cabo Pulmo: tiger sharks ( big
ones) and bull sharks.
The conditions in Pulmo are better than ever, 91 degrees on surface,
80-100 vis ... how can you beat that? There are more people interested
in snorkeling this year in Pulmo too. FYI, the non divers are welcome
on our boat – snorkeling is great as marine life starts to show
in very shallow water.
Went out diving yesterday and was interesting, warm and fun! I was the
only one looking at the manta, while the DM was pointing out some sea
horses to the rest of the group!.
The plan isto take advantage of the great sights at Pulmo, so we are
open to diferent itienraries, just a matter of you emailing us.
