Today was the second day of our scuba diving expeditions. We set out in the morning to Big Tunnels for our first of two dives. This particular spot was easily my favorite so far. As the name suggests, there are literal tunnels made out of coral in which divers can swim through at depths up to 100ft (diving at...

Today was an extremely fun dive day consisting of 2 dives at 2 very unique dive sites; The two dive sites were Big Tunnels and Bonnie's Arch. These dives were the deepest dives I have ever done and due to the clarity of the water I could still clearly see at 100 feet deep. We scuba dived in trench...

Just like yesterday we started the day out at breakfast with the amazing ocean view. We boarded the boat and went to out first dive site: Big Tunnels. It was one of the coolest and most interesting things I have ever experienced because of the color and depth, and the way that we swam through the coral. I saw...

Today was our third day in the Cayman and the water couldn't have felt better. As we travel to our first dive site Big Tunnel, I started to get excited about the dive that was coming soon. As I leaped into the water I could barely see the ocean floor below because it was so deep. Once my buddies...

Today began with a gift of an extra hour of sleep. We were allowed to sleep into 7 oclock, before waking up for a quick breakfast. After breakfast, we were back on the boat for two more morning dives, the deepest dives up to date. Our first dive took place at a reef site surrounded by large walls of...

Today we embarked on two significantly deeper dives where we explored the coral walls of two reef sites. In doing so, we got to see many different organisms and behaviors. Specifically, one of my favorite memories from the first dive was a camouflaged griped fish which was swaying with one of the soft corals. This fish moved as the...

I started the day off today at 6:30 A.M. before heading to breakfast at 7. Once I finished breakfast, my classmates and I headed out to our first of two morning dives at what is called "Big Tunnel Reef". During that dive, my partner Alex and I encountered many different marine creatures including fish, sea worms, and lobsters. Of...

On the second day of our Caribbean adventure, we started off the day at 6:30 am with a good breakfast. Once the group was finished eating we were given a quick boat briefing by one of the dive shop employees, this outlined the rules of the boat and how the crew operates. After this and a short interval we...

This morning, we woke up bright and early at 5:50 and had a great breakfast! Around 7:45 or so, we boarded our dive boat, the Twin Sister, and headed out to our first dive site: School House. I saw many interesting fish down there, especially a mahogany snapper. At first glance, the snapper looked like a lionfish, an invasive species,...
