El Canon (The Canyon)

The Canyon is San Benedicto's shark junction. A ridge drops away to a cut in the shelf around 25-30 m where cleaning stations pull in scalloped hammerheads - sometimes scattered individuals, sometimes schools that fill the up-current view - while silky and Galapagos sharks ride the mid-water and whitetips pave the bottom. Tiger sharks pass through often enough that briefings cover them without drama. Mantas visit here too, though the Boiler keeps the crown. It is a patience dive: find the rock shoulder, tuck in low, control your bubbles, and let the traffic come round on its circuit. Multiple species per minute is a normal count.

您此行的高光时刻: Hammerhead schools over the cut, layered shark traffic, occasional tigers and mantas

地形地貌: Rocky ridge and canyon cutting through San Benedicto's southern shelf

水流: Works best with flow across the ridge; guides stage divers behind the rock shoulders.

危险因素: Depth discipline in current; blue-water ascents off the shelf.

高氧（Nitrox）: 在此值得使用——各潜点深度落在富氧空气（nitrox）能有效延长免减压时间的区间（前提是持有相应认证）。
