Mola Mola and the Orca!!

Ferdandina Island
We all were up early for a 6am breakfast then onto land at Espinosa Point. There were marine iguanas stacked on top of each other, flightless cormorants basking in the sun, penguins swimming, sea lions resting and big whale bones on the sand, I pretended to be an iguana laying in the sun.
Then we all went snorkeling in very cold water. We saw penguins before getting in, flightless cormorants swimming and lots of turtles.
We then traveled to Punta Vincente Roca on Isabella Island. I did a wall dive which had spectacular visibility, I saw a Mola Mola, a sea lion playing with the bubbles of our tanks and beautiful tropical fish. It was very cold, 14 degrees and my deepest dive ever of 35metres. It was one of my favourite dives although I had lots of buoyancy trouble.
After I joined the others for a bit of snorkeling where I saw turtles and searched for a marine iguanas under water, but they were all in the sun on the rocks.
We went for a dinghy excursion to search for the Mola Mola. Whilst looking I spotted what I thought was one but instead it was an orca!! We sped over and saw it chasing a turtle with a sea lion following it. The orca spun right near our boat and surfaced. We could clearly see the turtle swimming away in front of it from our dinghy. It was truly an incredible sight!!
After we found some Mola Mola who seemed to circle us in the boat. I took some great underwater shots of it swimming around. We had celebration drinks that night as we crossed the Equator.Les mer
