DRIFTING PA’AVA TO KOKOS 14 jan

such a fun drift, and one we don’t usually do for various reasons.  but conditions were perfect, and my two students were up for the challenge of their first drift dive.  simon and raefael both did a great job in every way, they are both certified now, and we had a blast!  Pa’ava corner was packed with various reef fish, as usual, and as we followed the ledge we found octopus, a huge eel, and turtles along the way.  We also dove turtle canyons, and saw tons of fish, but the highlights were the octopus, a frogfish, and a rock scorpion fish.  lots of eels there too!  but no eagle ray today, he must have finished his lunch already.  thanks to simon and raffy for great focus, and attitude – you guys will enjoy diving for a long time!  larry and joe.
