The larger pelagic's including Whale Sharks and Manta Rays are making their
annual appearances during this time, to feed on the rich
plankton blooms which make this incredibly bio-diverse area so full of life.
Anchovies prefer the La Nina since the upwelling of deep nutrient - rich water at the eastern Pacific fuels a huge
plankton bloom sustaining a multi-million ton
annual fishery of anchovies off Peru.
