Jaws put on quite a show with various schools of fish populated the entire reef-scape. Lots of tiny moray eels poked their heads out of holes and from under small coral outcrops. Someone must have plugged in the anglefish & butterflyfish because their yellows, purples, oranges & blues shone in crazy bright neon today. We had a couple of the cutest green turtles pretending to be asleep on the reef and then an awesome hawksbill turtle who couldn't get enough of us and kept swimming closer to the divers, then veering off before trying to sneak in close again!

The breeze picked up a little while we were on our first dive, so we headed for the shelter of the islands and one of our favourite sites, East Side Bommies. It was hoppping today with schools of large barracuda, drummers, convict surgeons and tiny shimmering baitfish. Turtles swam around, small reef sharks snoozed on the sand, parrotfish made a huge racket chomping on coral and lionfish flitted about showing off their amazing fins. This was another very special dive and there's no way to wipe the grins off our faces!
