Dive Details: This was my first reef dive, Wow! What a lot of fish!!! I saw many types of fish like Parrot fish, small wrasses but the best thing I saw was a white tip shark. It was quite a bit further down than I was but it looked very graceful. I also saw a pin-cushion star fish which looked very short and stumpy, lots of coral (it wasn't as colourful as I expected it to be, but it was interesting all the same.) We watched a parrotfish move coral out of the way with his mouth, it made me grateful my finger was no-where near his mouth as it looked very powerful.

Accumulated Time Underwater: 1 Hr 59 Mins
