30 minutes of Cavorting Sea Lions off the Islas Plaza, with special guest Gillian Crook .

Last diving day of the trip we had moored overnight off the Isla Plaza with the intention of diving "Gordons Rock", a half submerged volcano crater, in the morning. Unfortunately the guides deemed that the conditions were too precarious. Our alternative was a six metre dive off the back of the boat and a possible Sea Lion experience - we were not disappointed. Within a short period we were surrounded by group that just wanted to play and mimic. Gillian was obviously a big hit with them - although they took a little time to get used to the hood ! The water clarity wasn't great but the collection of pics gives a fairly good feel for the moment.
