TrueTricia October 7, 2019 Share October 7, 2019 When I was deployed to the Middle East, I got to take 30 days of leave. Rather than come home, I used my leave to travel, and my unit encouraged me to break it up. So I was lucky to go to the Maldives with a couple of girl friends for a wonderful relaxing week in the Gan Atoll. I dove six days, two dives a day, and it was incredible. We started out with manta ray dives hooked into the reef on a drop off, and ended with the last dive finding a dense school of tiny fish that made you feel like you were in the middle of a swarm (see photo). I saw everything from sharks, eels, mantas, turtles, octopus, and every kind of fish I could want! I saw leopard wrasses, anthias, damsels, angels, tangs, triggers (nearly got nipped by a giant queen trigger), tons of clowns hosting in nems... I'm only now sorting out all of the photos, and I still have hundreds to edit. But I thought I'd go ahead and post a few here that I've finished... I have so many more, plus dive videos that need to get looked at... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImGoingCoastal October 7, 2019 Share October 7, 2019 Looks like diving on Guam! I miss it! Can't wait to go back this winter. Not sure how many dives I'll get in, but hopefully a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
