A great day out at Gordo Banks with 3 divers and 1 guide departing from Cabo San Lucas. Surface conditions were exceptional, flat, mirror-like water with no wind at all made for a smooth ride out.

We hit the pinnacle and encountered a school of hammerheads, though the interaction was brief. Thermocline noted at depth (Depth: 100ft/30mts, T°: 69°F/20°C, Viz: 25ft/8mts).
