  • He made a square turn towards us and a couple of powerful pushes with his tail and pulsed as he glided over head, letting momentum carried him through water as if he knew he was too close and if he continued to flap his tail he'd send us tumbling...and then, as he passed he started swimming again and quickly disappeared into the deep blue. I believe Taino divers sent in the tap to a local agency who identified this humpback. He was born a few years ago in very waters we saw him and had a name.

  • Hi, thank you all for the kind encouragements. I have been lucky to dive some of the richest waters and PR has been a favorite.

    On this trip I went with the Taino divers in the town of Rincon. We dove just off of isla desecheo in about 60ft. It seemed like just another day at the reef until this guy emerged from the deep blue.

  • Amazing love the quality of the video. What camera were U using?

  • @eandin2005 The camera i use is a Canon HF100 and the housing is made by Ikelite specifically for that camera. Both work very well and highly recommanded. I wish the battery stay a little longer for the camera.
