Third OW dive. Rocky contours, mid/strong current, gear issues (water in mask). With Alfonso (Mexican), 12 divers + Chicho leading the way, fourth day of AOW course.

We moor by the cliff at some depth. The cave is a massive thing, not overwhelming at all, but nice and big. The best view is found inside when looking out at the entrance, with blue light illuminating the wide archway. We surface inside it, a smallish pool where we fit comfortably, and chat while glancing down below the waters at that blue entry we will traverse on our way out. Deepest I've been so far, just outside the cave. I follow Chicho, he spotted a manta, but fail to see it. Amazing how the vast sands stretch out into the blue, an emptiness far beyond.

First cave dive!
