    Mainland - Turtles and Tarpon dive from BA/Coz

    yeah, tortugas, if i remember correctly. tons of turtles munching at the bottom. i tried to swim against the current to observe, but the currents were too strong. the turtles just looked at me like i was nuts, but kept on eating. ride back is harsh. forget the towel or sweater. put...
