Incredible beaches and some more diving!
... way down they saw really special fishes like a unicorn, tuna, puffer, Napoleon, parrot, barracudas and a white tip reef shark. Another exiting part of this dive was the different cleaning stations. A cleaning station is a place were smaller fishes clean the bigger ones. Amazing to see!

They were very happy to have us join them and one guy decided that the Bruce he knew was Bruce Lee and therefore, Bruce was subject to karate references for the rest of the evening.
