As far as I know those are not closed in December. and we went to them as well. Chankana'ab was where we were told we could not go.

My understanding was this was the official closure list:

They took you to these sites in December? So much for reef closures.

Chankanaab and Chankanaab bolognes are closed Dec and Jan. It's in the doc you posted.

Hi @ColoDale

Your nice photo of the grouper is a Red Hind rather than a Tiger Grouper or a Rock Hind. The most obvious feature is the black margin on the tail and rear fins.

I looked again and it is a Red Hind (grouper family) due to black margins. I got in a hurry before. Speed kills . At this point I can't edit unless I ask. Hopefully people will read past the first page.

I think that is a Yellowfin Grouper.

Here is a Tiger Grouper from Bonaire, 2017
