The very last dive of the entire trip. Managed to do 18 dives total, out of 19 offered.
I only skipped the night dive on 17th to Orabi.
I took my camera for this dive, Tomi did not take anything.
I had fisheye inside dome and one flash.
Me and Tomi went to East around the reef corner and then north, outside of the bay where the reef opened to the sea. We stayed at 15 meters on our way out then turned back at 22 min, and came back at shallower depth about 12-10 meters.
Around the corner there was much better visibility and very sunny. There was a small swell from the big waves above, rocking us back and forth but nothing too disturbing. There were sandy patches, and then small coral bommies, occational growing pinnacles and some table corals. Not that much fish, but quite pretty scenery. Saw some linofishes, a blue spotted ray, one small anemone, the usual little fishes.
On coming back around the corner some curious trumptet fishes. Ended the dive next to the boat at 5 meters, did the safety stop at the reef, then back t the boat.
Then started undoing the diving kits, rinsing a little and preparing to dry and pack things.
