TravelingNinja Posted April 11, 2009 #1 Share Posted April 11, 2009 I plan to go with Quasar Expeditions on a dive cruise that includes Wolf and Darwin Islands. There are very few dive operators who are authorized to take trips to these islands, so I want to make the most of this cruise. What is the best time of year to see the large sea creatures - whale sharks, hammerheads, giant manta rays, orcas, sperm whales, etc - that are in these areas?

bruce-r Posted April 12, 2009 #2 Share Posted April 12, 2009 You aren't likely to get much of a reply here. You're much more likely to get responses from divers who have been there if you post your question on the Diver to Diver Message Board or on http://www.scubaboard.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimw Posted April 13, 2009 #3 Share Posted April 13, 2009 The positive side, no or less wetsuit. It was during an El Nino event so the water temps were up anyway. The temps varied widely as I recall, something like 68-78F. And could change during a dive. We did not go to Wolf and Darwin. We were on a small 65ft liveaboard for a week. Very nice diving, a few Hammerheads, numerous Galapagos sharks, turtles, rays, I saw a Penguin even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
