    Open heel fins - Socks or Booties?

    I prefer the boots with my open heel fins as well. Depending on the beach and entry point, I sometimes trek to a dive spot. The boots provide a little more safety to me since my boots cover my ankles and help protect against other dangers as well. Congrats & enjoy the honeymoon!

    Despite the cloudy weather, I was able to capture a few decent shots. The highlight of my day was my encounter with a Broadclub Cuttlefish. The location I went snorkeling at was Maeda Flats, Okinawa, Japan.
