Wreck Dive
This was the best dive of my life. the first impressive thing that I saw was a kind of sucking ball that you put in your hands and then when you turn your hand around it sticks. After that, I saw a very small spotted moray. The wreck was broken into 3 different sections. The last section we checked I saw a 4 feet barracuda. For the entire time we where there he stood still (for about 15 minutes). It was so cool. And finally, the last sea creature I was on that dive was a nurse shark. I really got excited to see my instructor make a type of fin on the top of his head to point out a shark. I really enjoyed that dive. It was really awesome.
