This is truly a one of a kind tour that we have tailor made with the help of our hosts at Pelagic Safari in Cabo San Lucas. This tour is all about getting in the water and snorkeling alongside some of the ocean's most charismatic creatures. For one week we will indulge in the bounty that the Sea of Cortez offers with stops in Cabo San Lucas, La Paz, and Magdalena Bay on the Pacific coast. March is arguably the best month for snorkeling the Sea of Cortez as it's when all the big animals congregate here. With a bit of luck and the first hand knowledge of the team at Pelagic Safari we can expect to swim along side whale sharks, playful colonies of sea lions, sea turtles and a variety of shark species like blue sharks, silkie sharks and possibly smooth hammerheads. What's more is that this time of year coincides with whale season, so you are not only likely to see humpbacks, gray whales, blue whales, and orcas from the boat, but you may be able to swim along side them as well!
This video shows how to use 'Dutchman's Log', an iOS and Android app to measure your boat speed through the water. It can also be used to calibrate your boat's log instrument. https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/dutchmans-log/id474782184?mt=8 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.co.navsoft.dutchlog A boat's speed may be estimated by timing how long it takes to pass a floating object. Set boat length and desired units in 'Settings'. Two persons are needed: one stands on the bow, and the other aft. The person on the bow throws an object that will float (eg crumpled piece of paper) into the water, ahead and to one side of the bow. As it passes the bow at right angles, they shout 'Now', and the person on the stern starts the digital timer. When the object passes the stern at right angles, the timer is stopped. The App now calculates and displays the boat speed.
