Three Dives at Cabo Pearce off Socorro Island May 31,2021

After making the 72 mile trip from Roca Pardida overnight we promptly starting diving the Cabo Pearce dive site off Socorro Island. The dives all quickly became filled with visits by friendly Giant Manta Rays. By the way, water temperatures throughout the trip ranged from 71 to 74 degrees, I was comfortable in my well worn 3 mm full suit, a mini hood, and a hooded 5 mm vest. Here's a view of the Cabo Pearce dive site at Socorro Island:
Above, the dive briefing diagram for Cabo Pearce. Before the Giant Mantas arrived, I photographed a few of the local dive site denizens, here's a Stingray, a Scrawled Filefish, and a Bicolor Parrotfish:
The rest of our three dives were just filled with great Giant Manta visits, here's a sample of pictures. To see more, please go to: https://photos.app.goo.gl/jjqmaWPYMaRevsJK8 , you'll have to copy and paste because the Google link embed process is snafu.
Here's one of many gopro videos I shot on these dives. This one begins with a Giant Manta landing from a sudden leap into the air, directly above me. You'll have to copy and past the link because the Google process for embedding links is currently fubar: https://youtu.be/2vv9I4aaApk
