I have been there 4 times, 3 before Covid, , and unfortunately, the last trip, about a year ago, was very disappointing. I really hope it comes back because this area, used to be the best of the Caribbean and the corals were spectacular.
What was disappointing? Hard corals? Soft corals? Fish diversity? Fish numbers?
 
Rick,

I'm headed to Jardines de la Reina in two weeks. I'll be shooting an Olympus E-M1 Mark III and have been debating what lens to take. I was thinking of 8mm, 12-45mm and the Panasonic 7-14mm for the crocodile trip. I was not planning on shooting any macro, but looking at your pictures I'm now questioning that decision. Is there enough opportunities for macro to necessitate taking a 30mm or 60mm lens?
