We dove every day that we could and had some of our best experiences out on the water. This is a giant clam growing in some coral. Click here to see some underwater video. |

One day we saw a shark nursery with 50-70 baby sharks all swimming together. They seemed as curious about us as we were about them. Sorry I don't have any shots of them. This is some coral closeup. Click here to see some underwater video. |

And still more flats. These areas are filled with fish and sea creatures. We didn't get a chance to take the kayaks out ourselves, but heard it was worthwhile to get a good closeup view of some things. |
