Today started off with giant donuts that Doc brought to our cabin for breakfast. We then got on the taxi and made our way to our service site where we would be cleaning the beach of all plastics and debris.

Today was our last day that we got in the water to dive. It started with team Sea Dragon going to the coral nursery to clean the coral trees. We were supposed to go and clean off the algae and gunk that had collected on the trees in the past week. The trees had five branches and held ten...
