Dave Rufft and I headed out to dive Snappers Ledge and Conch Reef, which we had not visited in awhile. Visibility at Conch was not great, although we were greeted by a shark circling beneath us. The red filter for my GoPro fell off on entry and couldn’t be found, so my videos and photos were less than stellar for todays dives. Dave did spot a well camouflaged Scorpion fish.
After diving Snappers we headed to Conch Reef, which neither of us had dived yet this winter. Only they way out in blue water, we encounter a pod of Dolphins. We watched them for awhile and Dave jumped in with snorkel gear and got a close up view. Upon reaching Conch Reef, we geared up and jumped in and were promptly greeted by a large Hawksbill turtle. I also managed to capture a good video of an Moray Eel swimming by on the way to his “lair”.
