Exceptional Diving Conditions in the Galapagos
The Galapagos Islands are experiencing exceptional diving conditions in 2024 with unprecedented hammerhead shark sightings due to the El Niño to La Niña transition. This shift creates optimal marine life conditions, attracting divers to large hammerhead schools. El Niño brings warm waters and less marine productivity, while La Niña boosts nutrient-rich waters, enhancing biodiversity. 2024 offers unique diving opportunities, emphasizing responsible travel to protect the Galapagos ecosystem.
