Shark Alley, Wolf Island, Galapagos, Ecuador. On first seeing Wolf Island I thought we might be back at Wilsons Promontory in Victoria. The terrain was similar to the offshore islands at The Prom. The weather conditions were similar. But underwater was a whole different story. We did the regular dives where you hang on and look out into the blue. On the very first dive at Shark Alley we spent 20 minutes with a huge eagle ray just a few metres away hovering in the current. When we let go, we were flying fast in the current to the next hang-on spot.
