Monday we drove down to Bahia Honda State Park. The weather was fairly nice so we thought we might snorkel off of their beaches. The place was really crowded but we did not see anyone snorkeling or swimming. We were told if we snorkeled off a particular beach we would have to have a diver down flag (the red one with a white cross). It was going to cost $$ to buy or rent one so we opted not to. Besides, the water is still really cold. So we walked the beaches, catching some rays and some exercise then went back to the RV. Ho Hum, boring day.
Now the excitement! We actually went SCUBA diving today! We were on a boat with 4 snorkelers but we had our own dive instructor go down with us. It was very shallow diving - only 12-14 feet - but that is OKAY with me! We saw lots of different fish, lobster, sea fans, lots of different coral, more fish. . . We made two dives on two different reefs. John's mask leaked, so he struggled with that again. And my ears still don't clear very well. It was still exciting and fun! I'm ready to try again! We may go out to Looe Key on Thursday.
Every night we look forward to the Sunset Group on the sea wall, cocktails and new friends and usually a beautiful sunset.
