Double Drift 5/31

It was a blustery day out with a bit of rain but our seasoned divers came out to splash in the Pacific.  Ended up doing a double drift, sometimes Mother Nature has her own idea of what we can do.  We all jumped in at LCU and explored the boat a little then on our way.  Trying to make the next barge but the current pulled us a bit to the south.  This was fun for us to explore areas we seldom get to see.  It’s always fun to see places we never get to see.  Vienna even got to try out Nitrox for the very first time on her dives today with our Dive Nitrox Special.

Our next drift was shallower on one of our favorites, Fantasy reef.  Pretty sure we found out were “All” the turtles hang out on current filled days.  Pretty sure we saw at least 20 of them.  Sterling, did her very first drift dive and was amazing on it.  We all had a super time and again got to see stuff we don’t get to see often.  The current pulled us about three quarters of a mile which made the end of the dive pretty amazing.  Lots of eels, turtles and uncountable number of reef fish.  Even found loads of Helmet’s.  This was a pretty special dive and we had a great time doing it.   Brooke had our famous hot towels on the way in to freshen up with, always our divers favorite!  It was great having Arman, Mike, Chris, Vienna and Sterling back on the boat with us.  They are all repeat friends of Island Divers!  We always love having familiar faces with us.
