Night dive!
Guided by Laura, 23-year-old Canadian, recently graduated from Waterlook U in Ontario. Freckly, kinda cute. Didn't see all that much. 1 large crab. 1 sleeping parrot fish under coral. Lots of shrimp & red shrimp eyes peeking out. Most interesting thing was very large trevally (5 ft) who want to eat the fish in our light beam, so they swoop in under or around you dramatically and very close. Amazing at first, then gets annoying.
Laura guided us along the wall and back, but she got lost on the way back to the boat and had to change direction. Toby bitched her out back on the boat for going too far away from the light.
Talked with Laura on the bow later & we believe she was stoned. She said she though the overall diving in Thailand was better.
She said the GbR was about
-30% mediocre or dived out
- 30% good
- 30% best in the world (better than Thailand)
All depended on the chosen sites.
