Diver's Notes

The area was clearly over-fished for a number of years. However, the coral is starting to come back and we saw fan, fire, brain and stovepipe...but still sparse. For sealife, we saw barracuda, lion fish, wrasse and a lobster in a giant lobster pot (the size of the crab pots in "The Deadliest Catch").

The thing about the dive that was cool was the topography. There was a mix of canyons to swim through and around as well as sandy bottoms.
