By far one of the best dives in my life! (Top 5) The reason being because of how colourful and how many different types of of marine life I have witnessed. I saw many multi-colour fish,3 ribbon-tail rays, 3 raggies and 1 loggerhead turtle. The 2 most incredible moments in the dive were the best I saved to mention last, whilst my brother and the dive master, Steven, were swimming on the sand bed and swam over the a rock wall we saw 2 distinct silhouettes and immediately identified them as a potato bass accompanying...wait for it...a manta ray! The ray had a fish on top of it`s head and it was about 2,5m from the other divers while I risked it and managed to be at 1,5m. The dive master told us to regroup to end the dive, so while my brother and i were watching him reel in the buoy line we saw that his has got darker and assumed it was the clouds blocking the sun but then Steven indicated us to look behind us. There was a school of yellow tip king fish ( excuse for incorrect specie) joining another small school of what seemed to be barracudas (yellow tip barracudas I assume) and i was the closest diver to swim in the schools to have the fish shade me from the sun like a shiny curtain.
