This incredible Sunday we had excellent conditions, no wind, no waves, and 100+ visibility! Our first dive we went to the New Barge which most of our divers had never been too, with a boat full of regulars that is hard to do! James and Rene were super stoked to get around to a new site. John and his son Kyle also enjoyed the New Barge for the wide open swim threws on the wreck. On our way to the site we were blessed with whales and dolphins such a great day out there we could see for miles thankfully they were much closer than that and actually followed us to the dive site! The next dive we did was Skimmins Reef, Don and his dive buddy Dano really enjoyed this sites topography and pristine coral reef, Jared and Hayley really enjoyed this site as well for the untouched reef. On our way back to the dock we stopped at our last dive site the infamous sea cave. Which Hayley and Matt really enjoyed once they were threw the entrance, we were lucky to see 4 white tip reef sharks and 6 turtles! Ending our day with the best dive site on the island everyone was raving about our epic adventure out to sea. Setting a new record we were in by 1:20, A big thanks to everyone for being so efficient and getting ready fast and being self sufficient divers it made it a lot of fun for Bradley and myself to spend all day with such an excellent group of divers we can not wait to see all of you out again really soon! I am glad everyone got to experience the perfect conditions we were given today.
