After a wild storm rolled through the island Friday, the day after began with a great sunrise and softer winds. By the time the Sea Fox was ready to get under way on Saturday the sun was shining and the seas were calm. A great crew of divers boarded (Aya, Carlos, Carlos Jr, Christine, Christopher and Priti OW1/2, David, Richard and Evan OW3/4, Douglas, Greg, Gustavo, Haley OW1/2 , and Voreen) and off we went to Koko Craters. The green water let us know the visibility was down a bit due to the storm the day before, but all the divers pushed on and got down to the site, After all the students aced their skills, off we went to find some residents of the deep…

Turtles slept under the ledge, taking refuge from the surge in the crater…

And a puffer hid out in the calmer water under the dwarf statue…

Once all our divers were safely aboard the Fox it was on to Anglers Reef… a bit better visibility was had on the site, where skills were mastered by all our divers after which it was a quick dive on the wall…

while reef fish of all shapes and sizes swam about the hard coral.

A great day of diving… thank you to all our divers for a safe and fun day of diving! Congrats to Richard and Evan on competing their open water certification!
