Sailfish - Marlin - Isla Mujeres Mexico
I was in Mexico for three weeks to photograph sailfish by the island Isla Mujeres and Cenote (both in Yucatan starting off point is Cancun). With Lufthansa the flight is straightforward from Frankfurt to Mexico City, and then on with Mexicana to Yucatan - Cancun. I must recommend Mexicana! The ticket for Business Class is so cheap, that Lufthansa does not give miles for it ;-)))
The sailfish come to the coast of Yucatan at the start of each year to hunt sardines. They hunt the smaller sardine swarms in a group, and pick individual fish out of the swarm with their spear. A spear thrush stuns the sardine, which is then devoured as though they would run out tomorrow.

I am an experienced diver and would like to arrange to dive with sailfish. Can you recommend what operator to use and when to go?
