The very first dive of the morning was no doubt one of the best dives on the trip. Although it took quite a lot of energy to swim against the current in order to get to the site, the amazing corals, the Barracuda and Napoleon fish were well worth the effort.
We started the dive in about 30 meters, me watching closely on my Suunto D9 dive computer. While using enriched air (Nitrox 32%) I didn't want to go too deep. The slowly flowing current gave us the sightseeing tour we wanted without having to move a fin! A 45 minute dive was a great experience although not as long as everybody would have wanted... we all just ran out of air 'cause of the heavy swimming in the beginning of the dive.
The next two dives were a mix of business and pleasure while I had to help a few AOWD students in their navigational exercises. Luckily everybody got the hang of using the compass underwater quite quickly and we were able to have a look around both the west and east side of the Aquarium site. Nobody even got lost!
