Friendly wrasse

Woke up at 6:15 in the cockpit. Skipper wanted to get to the dive spot " Blue Corner" before the charter dive boats.

Meaning first dive was at 7 in the morning.
Depth: 21m
Time: 44 minutes

We saw three turtles, lots of reef- whitetip sharks, and met a very friendly Humphead Napoleon Wrasse. It was following us for at least 5 minutes, and we were able to pet it. 
At the reef edge we were using a reef-hook to hook up to the reef. Means hanging  in a line, and not using energy "fighting" the current. Once you find your balance, it's a great way to take a rest, and hang in a perfect shark spotting area.

A world famous dive spot with so much to see.

Second dive: blue holes
The usual. :-)
We went down to 25 meters through a blue hole from shallow water. Cool experience. Time: 45 minutes.
Peter, Sophia and Signe had to do their deep dive with a math test at 32 meters.
They were interrupted several times with another friendly wrasse. He was swimming really close to the "students". They were all able to pet him. Apparently the fish likes the reflection in the diving mask.

In the afternoon I went snorkeling with Kim L. Just under amazing a Spotted Eagleray cruised under us. Very lucky.
