Diving with Bull Sharks - Cabo Pulmo

[tiggymalvern]

Cabo Pulmo is a marine National Park in the southern Sea of Cortez. El Vencedor was a fishing boat that hit a reef and sank in the early 80s. It's now broken up and scattered over a sandy area of sea bed, but it's where a number of bull sharks like to while away the day. It's also where schools of snappers and other fish gather. I found a lovely free-swimming jewel moray among the nets, and there was also a hawksbill turtle being harassed by yellowtail surgeonfish.
Later we dived Los Morros, a reef known for its schools of jacks.

This was the last day of diving on our trip, but I made this video first because sharks are more important than logic :-)

That really is one of your most beautiful vids. What an amazing experience, with such variety.

That’s as close as i ever want to come to a bull shark, though 😄

I started with an hour and twenty minutes of video from just those two dives. They really were incredibly scenic sites! I got it down to 18 minutes without too much trouble, but then I had to get really ruthless and cut even more sharks XD
