We did 14 dives total at 11 different dive sites. We were supposed to do three dives at Richelieu Rock but only did two, which is in the top 10 dives sites in the world. It was disappointing due to a massive plankton bloom so visibility was rather poor. On the other hand the conditions were right for whale sharks, but we didn't see any. We did two at another sight where mantas frequent, but again we struck out.
The last dive site where we did two dives was pretty cool. We moored overnight so we did a sunset dive in the evening when all the fish were coming in for the night and then did the same sight in the morning.
There's something to be said for being woken up at 6:30am, getting a dive briefing and then jumping into the water at 7am. Get out of the water at 8am and being fed. Have a nap, wake up for the briefing, dive, and then eat. Repeat it day after day.
