Comments The good, Getting out of winter in Idaho Falls.
The bad, having to come home.
I have made this trip for about seven years now.
The morning dive leaves the marina about 9 am and after one hour plus dives we were back at the beach bar in time to have a Cerveza
before lunch.
A few days the wind kept the red flags up so no dives.
Nick and his excellent operation have always done great work for me.
This trip was kind of in between busy times for Aquanauts so many times my son and I were the only divers, pretty great having what amounts to private dives.
Eagle eyed divemaster Marteen pointed out a seahorse, and Divemaster Carlos enticed a big Moray to devour a Lionfish.
