Hope you enjoy these misc pics from last Sunday. Still hoping to see whales even though we heard them during the entire dive… I will try to record the sound next time.

his dive story
One of my fav things to do when we are approaching the boat after our dive is to look for these small creatures of the sea. You almost have to place yourself next to a big coral and observe with patience as it will take a bit of time to adjust your eyes to start seeing these little ones.
It’s really amazing what you see and how there is so much life just in a small section of a coral!

his dive story…
to the cuttlefish, I love these slimy creatures that hide under corals and crevices. I have seen much less octopus here in Turks & Caicos than I had when I was diving weekly in Lagos and Sagres in the Algarve, Portugal. This was the first octopus that actually was out in the open. You can see that he/she is trying to intimidate us by expanding itself to show it’s size.
On another note, I miss eating a nice fresh polvo salad!

From these pics, you can easily have swam past this graceful creature if you are not looking carefully. We often see these big sting rays in our dives in West Caicos and they often see divers so there is no surprise or reaction from them when we invade their private spaces.
Every so often, Joana would see one come up to shore and just swim around the beach looking up out of the water now and then.
Oh did I tell you that the locals serve rays on the menu if you are lucky enough to be there on the day of the special!
See my previous posts HERE, will be back next week!

In my dives, I often see these types of fish that are coupled for life and literally inseparable. I wonder if they are truly as happy as they seem….. are they?
