Notes du plongeur

First dive for Madalyn - Excellent! Current was the slowest I have ever experienced in Cozumel. We were able to kick from coral out-croppings in every direction. Vis was a litte hazy due to this slower current. Ramone said tide was shifting, causing these calm conditions.
We saw more lobsters than usual, and becasue the sun was setting the large crab had started coming out on open sand. Ramone showed Madalyn a few things she could touch, and we saw huge sea worms, coral of all kinds, turtles and one large shark swimming around us.
Sun setting when we came up - BEAUTIFUL DIVE - Maddie was in awe.
