We are taking a small group of divers to spend a week on the ultimate big animal expedition...searching for sailfish chasing baitballs around the waters that surround Isla Mujeres, Mexico. These are one of kind natural encounters. For this type of adventure there are no guarantees that we will see any animals but we have chosen the best time of year to visit these waters, and we use the best guides to take us out to help us find the sailfish hunting and rounding up sardines on the surface. For this adventure we will travel to Cancun, Mexico where each morning we will leave our hotel and spend our days seeking out sailfish in the very best spots during the peak sailfish/sardine baitball season. This is a land based adventure.
Please keep in mind that we are limiting how many people can join us out there and only 6 guests will be able to join us...So book your trip early.
January of 2010 was the first season we went out in search of sailfish around the waters of Isla Mujeres, and we found them - 3 out of 4 days. Two of the days we spent over 45 minutes straight with sailfish attacking a baitball. During the 2011 season, we went back out and had several days where we encountered the baitballs and spent over 2 hours in the water with them, each day. These encounters were unique due to the length of time we spent with the animals, but it shows that everyday out there is different and when your dealing with the ocean and its amazing creatures- anything is possible. In 2012 we had a couple of days where we spent over an hour with these amazing animals. What was unique and exciting about this season was having bonita and schools of bonita join in and feed on the baitballs.
Please note that weather is a factor and we may not always be able to get out there, however on the days that we are forced to sit at port we will spend those off days diving with the bull sharks in Playa del Carmen, Mexico.
