Went along with Simon and two people taking a refresher (not a PADI one, just a general one). At first not spectacular, but then an eagle ray and a turtle directly after each other.

The guy in the couple was a little apprehensive, but they both relaxed more and more. And she held his hand in the beginning to calm him :)
