Diver's Notes

Turtle Crossing
We didn't see any Turtles. This was Rhonda's 2nd to last check out dive, so I puttered around while they did skills and then we toured the site. Good lighting and coral was colorful and pretty. Saw a swimming green moray eel about 5-6 ft long. Queen triggerfish was the highly, beautiful blue one. Lion fish and a variety of small stuff.
