No swell effect yet

I managed to dive for a day.

August 1, 2023

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
Weather: Sunny
Ground Temperature: 26~33℃
Water Temperature: 23~27℃
Wind Direction:Southeast(2~3m/s)
Swell: 1.0~1.5m
Visibility:8~12m
★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

We think the swell is getting bigger than yesterday.
But, it doesn’t  become bigger.

So, I can dive without stress for a day.

I teach the guest how to take a natural buoyancy underwater.
Finally, he can be good at taking natural buoyancy well.

When we make a safety stop, he can stay at the same depth without holding line.
I’m happy that he can get adjusting buoyancy skill.

As for underwater creature, we can see various one.

First, we can see puffer.
It is big puffer, the size is 50cm.
It swim slowly, so we can take a picture of it and hang out with it.

Then, small frog fish still stay at the same place.
It stay at the hole to escape the swell.

When it hade in the hole, it is difficult to find.

Others, we can see cute eel.
The mouth is yellow, so it is photogenic.

The forecast said the swell will be bigger tomorrow.
I hope we can also dive tomorrow .

See you then.

On the top of rock, there is a Anthias.

Sometimes, Male fish can also be seen courting female fish.
When he do so, he swim so fast around female fish.

The shrimp lives in disk coral. They pinch its coral by their leg.
So, I  cannot see anything on the coral.
But, sometimes the shrimps appear from coral.

If you can see it, you’re lucky.
