I just got off the phone with one of my dive buddys. He's been in Mexico for the past month.
He was telling me about the bull shark dive he went on in Playa del Carmen. This part make me a little bit nervous about swimming on Playa's beaches at dusk, dawn, and after a hard rain, but the dive sounds great. They jumped in the boat, went a short distance off shore when the motor stopped. He ask if they were having motor problems, due to the proximity of shore. (it sounds like this could have been an easy swim, but they needed the boat for chuming) He was told nope we are here. To his amazement they dropped the chum off the side of the boat, geared up, went off the back of the boat, and there the bull sharks were looking him in the face. He said it was a great dive. I guess one of the bulls were in the neighborhood of 600 pounds and there were a total of nine bulls swimming around him.
This sounds like a great dive! Next time I'm down around there I know exactly what I will be doing!!!
