The journey to the Islands this time was a little rough, but once there we headed to The Spit for our first dive. The swim-throughs were filled with screens of baitfish that swayed and parted for us just at the exit so we were treated to bright blue water and rays of sunshine. Sweetlips, cod, trout and other mid-sized fish hid behind the curtains of bait all along the reef edges.

Dive two was the Maze and again the whole site was in motion thanks to the masses of baitfish. There were lots of smaller reef creatures feeling a little braver due to the cover the baitfish provided: a couple kinds of moray eels, nudibranchs, a mantis shrimp, various crabs. Very nice dive!
