- Seaview reef
[61 minutes, max. depth 56’]: We headed South from Seaview towards Sunset House and rode the slight current back, ending right at the ladder at Seaview. Highlights: Spotted Scorpionfish, Pygmy Filefish , Peacock Flounder. - Hepp’s Pipeline
[52 minutes, max. depth 65’]: Looking back at the 18 dives we did that week, this one was one of our favorites. Right away we saw a 5 foot green Moray tucking himself into an overhang. We crossed over a sandy plain, down over a mini-wall to a huge coral "mound". The coral here seemed very healthy compared to other areas we saw. The site is not dived very often because conditions are rarely favorable for the dive. In other words, we were very lucky! During the dive we saw the first and second Turtles of the trip. I snuck up on the second one while he was sharing a snack with a grey angelfish…very cool! [44 minutes, max. depth 13’]: Often called the greatest 10 foot dive in the world. That I think goes to Moses Reef, Eilat, Israel. Still good though! Dived with Don Foster’s since TI didn’t have enough divers to go out. The one tank trip was not included in our dives for the week, so it cost us $55 US each. We rode a van out to the North side, and then boarded Foster's very large catamaran style boat that wasn't specifically outfitted for diving (no tank holders). A short boat ride to the shallow, sandy site and soon we were surrounded by many friendly stingray. Everyone should do it at least once, I guess. Don Foster's staff was very friendly, but the time we spent with them was really too short to form any kind of opinion. It's certainly a much larger operation than Treasure Island. Water Temperature on all dives was 83 degrees F. On all dives the coral was fairly healthy with a wide variety of fish life inhabiting it.
