A Nice Day of Diving

Our resort manager Hal, wanted to share pictures of a nice day of diving on the Rainbow Reef:  

A stellar day of diving with Dive Master Alfred and Boat Captain Nio. We did a drift along Rainbows End, where we saw several white tip reef sharks, including a pregnant female, and an enormous Napoleon Wrasse lunching on the reef. His entourage of groupers were picking up the leftovers. Surface interval was at the stunning Waitaitavi beach, where three of our divers were staying. Back out to the reefs for dive two, we dove Barracuda Hole and saw one barracuda, several more sharks, and a small hawksbill turtle. The colors were impossible to describe and photos don't do justice to the reef and the island scenery!

Picking up guests from Waitaitavi is a nice change of pace, and a perfect place to have surface interval.
