Details |
This was our first dive on the Pa Siren as part of our trip around Komodo Island and surrounding islands. It was meant as a check dive to make sure we were comfortable with our gear, had the right weights, etc., etc., etc.
It was a muck dive with loads to see. It was great to be diving in warm water. |
