This was the first trip that I did not bring my camers and was not upset at
all.We were there during the lunar eclipse which may have been why there
was such strong currents which would have made taking photos almost
impossible.

Surprisingly for the amount of pressure that the reef off Cozumel gets it
was very healthy.Coral was resenable with lots of small critters.Seen some
reef sharks, nurse sharks and lots of turtles and Spotted eagle rays. Also
encounterd the largest green moray yet.As much as I enjoyed the diving and
Aldora divers too many people for me.Hotel Cozumel was cleen and good for
divers on a budget.
