So todays dives are done. Also my dive buddy's birthday he is 50 years young. I promised him a good day out. Started well a Great Hammerhead Shark on the first dive, the second dive we had a really lovely wreck dive. On the wreck dive a bat fish decided it would be my buddy and stayed by my side even after we left the wreck for open ocen to do the safety stop it tagged along. Our guide said he had never seen anything like it before.

Last dive we went to what is called the Fish Tank. They should change the name to the Moray Tank must have seen over 15 different morays and at one location 6 were under a metal platform.

Again we had the same boat but only myself my buddy and the guide plus a boat driver and one other crew member. Fore sure we will dive with Raajje Divers in Male again. Only 12 dives but we would do more. Same guide for all the dives and he said he didn't have to guide us just come along and enjoy the dives.

On page 2 .... Fuvahmulah Scuba Club. Yeah we were very happy with them. Basically had two guides for the 12 diving days and they are pretty relaxed with customers and some good banter on the boat.
Also you are told, the law is 30m max depth anything you do deeper than that is on you. If you go into deco that is on you. Several of the dives we did short deco times at depth. Mostly I avoided deco if I could.

I was at 43m depth when I took this video... only a few minutes of deco time. Still did a one hour dive and I never finished a dive with less than 50 bar.
