Diver's Notes

Two day dive from Hamata with Lagona and Yassar dive guide . Didn't have a dive computer on these two dives as my Viper packed in on the last dive.
Two Great dives though with some white tip reef sharks, a nice school of barracuda and an octopus along the plateau. Amazing soft and hard corals, no other divers apart from our group. Couple of swim throughs.
Didn't log these two dives so going by memory. Nice Tug boat wreck two on second dive. Made up depth and times and can't remember them. Clearly remember the two dives though and what we saw.
