Wicked!

A little more detail on the location/resort would be awesome.

It's really nice seeing some brighter colors like we see in our tanks. That massive stag is gorgeous!

i'll put up a few more pictures from the resort snorkelling, and also from a snorkel trip in the middle of the ocean. but i dont have many because my olympus underwater camera sprung a leak not half way into our honeymoon!
luckily i had transfered some pics onto the laptop already!
i did go out and buy a disposable underwater camera after that, but those pics dont come out very well at all.

these guys are awesome! there were always a bunch of baby black tips swimming around the shoreline. about 2' long only!

Nice pictures! What kind of camera/housing do you use?

I don't think I've ever seen coral colonies like that... I have got to go there!

i was using an Olympus tough waterproof camera. does a decent job. though it did leak, leaving me with no underwater camera for half my trip. they did replace it under warranty later.

wait till i get pics up of the ocean snorkelling... that will show you what a real sps reef looks like.

Weren't you tempted to acclimate some natives?
