2019

Today was by far the best day of the trip. It started out just as the other mornings with the rooster and breakfast, and it only got better from there. The first dive site was one of the greatest diving experiences I have ever had since certification. The site was a series of coral formed into downward sloping tunnels that...

After getting up early and having breakfast we went out to dive at two shipwreck sites. The first site was USS Kittiwake which was commissioned during ww2 from 1945 to 1994. It ended up in the Cayman Islands because they wanted a large shipwreck so they did the paperwork and finally after six years in 2011 it was towed...

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...

We visited two wreck sites today, Kittiwake and Doc Poulson. Kittiwake was a 250 foot U.S. Naval submarine rescue ship that was used for multiple American national success including rescuing Buzz Aldrin and recovering the black box from the exploded Challenger. We descended about 40 feet away from the site and made our way through the ship. We entered...

Like any morning, eating breakfast at 7:00, and going on the boat at 8:00. We set out to the first location, which was called Sand Hole. Sand Hole was fairly close to where we were staying, only about five minutes away. This was one of the deeper dives, since I went all the way down to 80 feet. Sand Hole...

Quickly, after finishing breakfast, we gathered our gear for the final time and headed to the boats excited for two more dives. We stayed on the North side of island today because of the calm water, the first dive site of the day was Sandhole. After submerging and swimming along the reef wall for 10 minutes we came upon...

The rooster. The day started with the natural morning alarm and all the exhaustion from diving and activities hit me. I was tired and drowsy, but I still threw a pillow at my heavy sleeper roommate and got some breakfast. Today's agenda had two more dives for us. The first dive was on the wall. This time, after a stern...

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...

This day began like every other, with a bright and early wake up at 6:45 A.M. sharp. We then enjoyed a quick fruit breakfast before loading on the boat for our first dive. The first dive took place at a famous wreck called the Kittiwake. I had been looking forward to this dive for the entire week and was...
