Details |
We walked into the water from the beach at the same location as the previous dive but this time we swam to the left (north west) and saw a different part of the area. This dive was similar to the previous dive with a volcanic sand slope spotted with rocks and corals. We turned and came back shallower exiting at the entry point.
The highlight of the dive was seeing a harlequin shrimp for the first time - in fact I saw three. Unfortunately, two were deep in a hole and the other was disappeared into its hole after I had only taken a couple of photographs. I looked for it on the way back but it was still deep in the hole. |
