Finally got back in the water and for three days in a row! Three lovely hour-and-a-half dives with good buddies (alas not all my good buddies as some have colds...missing you Marvel-and of course you too Jenny)
Every day was calm, currentless and decent vis. The reef is looking healthier than when I last got in back in February. The second reef didn't have as much diversity in the fish as the first but the corals were looking pretty good. The nursery was covered in glassy sweepers and we saw every species we would expect including nurse sharks.
It was nice sharing my favorite dive spot with a friend from England, a new local who had never been, and a former student who performed amazingly for a newbie! Her first dive since last summer and kept right up with me on air - and only 15yo!! Great kid and great diver. (PS - she is looking for dive buddies up in the WPB area)
That's all for now... Happy Easter to everyone! See ya underwater!
