Diver's Notes

At the beginning of the dive I was told we are doong "negative entry". I did not know what that is, unlike my dive buddies with 100+ dives. It was so much stress before as I didn't have any experiences with strong current.

At the beginning of the dive I was breathing like crazy as I was very nervous. In a very short time I used 20% of my air so knew I have to slow down my breathing. And I managed. In the end half of divers went up earlier and I did stay as I had more air! I was so proud of myself! On the way up we had to find a spot for safety stop, which was difficult with the strong current. I grabbed a little piece of rock and tried to hang in there. I managed and was happy to get up on board.

Through the whole dive we basically been sitting in the water and the current was takong us around small island. So great

Have seen shark, quite small and very far. Saw turtle again. Huge schools of fishes. Same fishes as previous dive.
