Eel gardens

I missed the morning dive today, still feeling a little poorly, but decided to get my act together for the afternoon. Just the two of us dived with Ahmed along the Eel gardens. Now, Ahmed told us that there was never any current at this dive site but I beg to differ. There were wave forms in the sand perpendicular with the shore!

We saw the eels, tons of them. Its not a great picture but added below for posterity because on the next dive there were none to be seen

Reef was wonderful

The joy of this dive was the return along the reef. I could do this kind of diving for hours. Loads of fairy basslets, several pufferfish, damsels. It was wonderful. The eels were cool (and on the next dive here we didnt see any) but I do prefer the reef.
