Notes du plongeur

This was a nice dive but the visibility was poor and the current was quite strong. We saw a peacock flounder and a huge midnight parrot fish in the sandy shallows. There was a big cowfish at the top of the reef. We saw our first black durgon of the trip during this dive. There was also a large drum fish and a soapfish. The reef structure was interesting with a large coral pillar we swam around at our turn-around point.
