So, it's the afternoon of December 16. Surely someone's been to Palancar? Columbia?
And so as not to tease, we were diving Thanksgiving week and it was some odd combo of Mountains, La Francessa, Cedral, on our second dive. We were on top of a little ridge, not sure exactly where but I'm sure Blue XTSea's Pedro Pablo does. During the first 15 minutes of the dive, I actually thought "Coz is great diving, you might see a hammerhead or whale shark [villablanca wall] but it's so rare, but you don't come for those animals...." Not 30 minutes later look to the little valley to the west of the ridge, Hammerhead and a couple hangers on slowly making its way north. All but two on our boat saw it (and boy, were they sorry they had such good air consumption and were still way back and deeper).
only the second hammerhead i've seen in the Caribbean, Cayman being the other.
