JADS Dive Center
July 5th-9th 2018
6 dives; 5 hours 28 minutes
Derek Guides: Eric, Sue, and Rudolf
The dive boat was nice, smaller but still with enough room for everyone to be on board. The first day there were eight passangers with four passangers per dive guide. The second day of diving had less people which was nice. During the surface interval they provided juices, and half a meat and cheese sandwich, plus cookies were available with water. Decent variety of hard and soft corals as well as sponges and smaller fish, a mild current was present on the morning dives.

Rudolf was the guide for the night dives, which were great. During the second half of the dives, we shut off the lights to see all the bioluminescent algae in the water and the corals. We were able to mostly swim back to shore without the use of lights and just the light from the moon and the biolouminescent algae in the water.
