Free Stickerson Election Day!

Our first ever Free Sticker on Election day was a success and we hope to see lots of the little red and white "diver down" stickers replacing Obama and McCain bumper stickers this year!

Channel Islands Sea Bass Video

On the San Diego Wreck Diving Trip we were fortunate enough to see a Sixgill shark so what could out do that?

A 100+ pound Black Sea Bass hunting Halibut!

Believe me, a fish the size of smart car darting around is a very humbling experience (imagine swimming around the Monterey Bay Aquarium's Blue Water tank when they're feeding the Tuna!). Jeremy, Julian and Paul were lucky enough to catch this rarely seen behavior on video!



You know what...this Black Sea Bass is still a juvinile!

Channel Islands Trip Recap (better late then never...right?)

Okay, so we've been getting a little behind on our blogging; nonetheless Channel Islands was great! The crew, of course, was excellent and the food was hearty but what set it apart from last year was we did some really unique dive sites.

Photos are now up for your perusal on the photo section of aquaticdiscovery.com

Video will be up shortly (hold on to your hats!).

PADI blogged about our blog!

In today's blog post on PADI's blog Aquatic Discovery's San Diego trip was a topic of discussion. Although the PADI community might have questions about whether we really saw a six-gill shark the divers on the trip all know what they saw!

...I wonder what the divers on this week's Channel Islands trip will see!

San Diego Wreck Trip: Photos are up!

Well the first day was pretty exciting with the sixgill shark sighting and all. The next two days we spent poking around the Yukon and Ruby-E which was beautiful. The Yukon is now totally covered club-tipped anemones and several very health group of Metridiums. We were treated to a great show by a harbor seal chasing fish in, out and through the wrecks...

San Diego Wreck Trip: Day 1

Sixgill Shark!

Our first day was quite eventful! We dove the wreck of the Lazy Days and were treated to an encounter with an 8' Sixgill slowly cruising the along the reef. We followed him for a few minutes before letting him be and heading back to the wreck. Uber-cool!
