It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one ey, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small. Neil Armstrong

DIVE WITH WHALE SHARKS
The Whale Shark, Rhincodon typus, is a slow filter feeding shark that is the largest living fish species. There is a migration in March, April, May, and June, when the sharks are observed at the Gladden Area by divers and snorkelers. Each year, during the full moon, Mutton and Cuberra snapper spawn at the Marine Reserve. The giant whale sharks come from far away to feed on the spawn and to mate.It is common on this dive to see schools of snapper in the thousands with whale sharks passing through them. Divers will likely see these majestic creatures very close, but they are not allowed to chase, ride, touch, or otherwise disturb the Whale Sharks. They mistake the scuba tank bubbles for eggs. Despite their size, whale sharks are remarkably gentle and curious. The whale shark's gentle nature makes swimming with them a special treat for divers and snorkelers. The whale shark's curiosity even pulls fishing parties into its thrall. Sometimes whale sharks seem to be asking to be petted as they glide alongside our fishing boats.
