Notes du plongeur

(Jill 48): Heather's Hallway. This was the 3-tank "safari" to the north side of the island. The owner of the company is trying to find good sites to put more mooring points in on the north side of the island (I believe he's working with the local government on this), so this longer run goes around the island and puts in at random points to see what is there along the wall. This could be the first time anyone has dove this location. Heather guided, so she got to name the site, and it started in the sand, and then we dropped into a narrow trough in the coral (the hallway) and exited that on the wall. This was comparable to the best dive I did in Australia, the wall and coral were just amazing on this stretch of it. This is the dive that puts Cayman ahead of Maui - it was amazing. Just jaw-droppingly awesome and beautiful. Jill is doing so great on her diving now (though she could wave her arms a bit less), and both of us did well on our air. Jill used a smaller "63" tank and that put us pretty much exactly even on air - we both hit half a tank at the exact same time. The wall drops down to ~3000' here, and it is just amazing. Not a lot of big fish though. We did see 1 really big crab and some big lobsters, and one of the evil lionfish. The coral here is really beautiful.
