Water temp: ?? °C
Buddy: Scuba Buachall

Immediately after descending we met two leafy sea dragons at one of the pylons. Absolutely beautiful and graceful, as usual.

Hilarious moment when Scuba Buachall pointed to what looked like a bit of sea moss. I looked and looked but couldn't 'see' what he was pointing to. Then he touched it...and it moved! A gorgeous tasselled angler fish that had the gift of camouflage, that's for sure! I nearly lost my reg with the shock.

Long snook, yellow tails, old wives, pygmy leather jackets.

A beautiful, beautiful dive.
