Cozumel Diving 2011 - Day 9

Day 9 -- Palancar Horseshoe Reef followed by San Clemente Wall. These were very nice drift dives that produced great colors of coral, sponge and fish. Greeted shortly after our decent by a friendly feeding sea turtle, the fun was on. Lobster (big enough to feed a family of six) poked its head out to say "hello". An unfriendly Lion Fish met its doom at the end of Dive Master Julio's spear and would be held over to the second dive to make a festive dinner for a large Mutton Snapper. A large crab waved goodbye as we prepared for our first assent of the day. On the second dive, though the current was swift, we were quickly met by another large lobster. Along the way were an array of beautiful reef fish, large Parrot Fish, large Brown Angels Fish, a couple of grumpy looking Barracuda and too many others to name. As we began our final assent a six foot Nurse Shark swam out to say goodbye. We hope you enjoy the photos and the videos today.
Gram doesn't like videos taken of her. Grandpa says, "Get over it, Gram!"

Wow! Watch these big Parrot Fish chompping down. Don't let them get your finger!
