Day 3- The Day with Reefs, Turtles, and Night Snorkels!
Today was our busiest day yet! We not only visited 2 dive sites, but also the turtle center and completed a night snorkel. The 2 dive sites were amazing and I saw a few new species in addition to the common ones I saw yesterday. For example, underneath a coral wall overhang, I identified an enormous 2-3 foot gray...
Day 3: Marine 2 in Grand Cayman
As another sunrise casted rays on the water, I groggily woke up to realize I need to rush. We had a tight schedule to change, eat, and get on the boat for our dives. Once again, the dive locations were within sight of the resort so hats off to the guy who the guy who chose the location. The...
Blog Post Day 3
Today I woke up had breakfast and got on the boat for two dives. Today during the two dives I saw a plentiful amount of colorful fish swimming around the reef. I saw a trumpet fish today which was cool because of how weird of a fish it is. It is long and narrow and to blend in with...
Day 3 (07/22/19)
On day 3 of our Caribbean adventure, our first tank dive took us to Bonnie's Arch where we descended into the water and we were met with a beautiful reef wall.

Coke – Day 3
I woke up today energized and ready for our next diving adventure. I ran down the stairs and grabbed some breakfast before our first dive. We boarded the boat and headed in a different direction than we normally do. The boat ride was longer than normal but it was a beautiful site not far from shore. Jumping in I...
Day 3
Another early morning for us started out with our dive site being a good ways from the resort which was nice as we got to see some of the rest of the islands shores. The west side of the island in which we have mainly occupied for the most part has very rocky shores that also consist of tide...
Cayman Islands – Day 3
Third day in the Cayman Islands is done! Back in the water with two morning dives like normal. Unfortunately nothing extraordinarily of note, but it is still cool to see so many different fish. Today I saw sergeant major, a queen angelfish, which was a lot bigger than I thought, another lionfish, and loads of French Grunt. There was...
Day 3: Gregory Pope
We had a usual start to the day with breakfast at 7 and then gathering gear for another 2 tank dive. We had the same divemasters, Lee and Lucy, and went straight to our first dive sight at Bonnie's Arch. Our briefing included the usual descriptions of the layout, a max feet cap of 70 feet, and a dive...
Diving Cayman Islands Day 2
Today we did 2 dives from the boat starting at a deep site known as Bonnie's Arch and then a shallow dive known as schoolhouse. Of the two my favorite had to be Bonnie's Arch with its amazing arch swim through and wide variety of interesting corals and fish. On the dive today at Bonnie's Arch I...
