Training with the Turtles 4/3/14

It was a nice afternoon on the water today for a couple shallow dives off the Sea Fox. We had Brady doing a discover diving course and Charles working on his PADI open water certification. For the first dive we tied up at Koko Craters and had nice viz as we swam around the reef. Right away on the bottom we had 5 green sea turtles resting around the little Buddha statue. Around the reef we found 3 more turtles resting under ledges. There were also reef fish all over with sergeant damsel fish guarding their eggs in different spots in the area.

For the second dive we headed over to Turtle Canyons for a nice dive. There was a bit of a current but there was a lot of life around the reef. There was a turtle near the mooring and a couple eels around the reef including a large white mouth morey. As we dove around the reef we found wrasses, damsel fish, and butterfly fish everywhere. It was a nice afternoon.
