Dive day 2. Visibility was much better and we hit two outstanding sites. The first featured lots of hard corals and we found some garden eels and upside down jellyfish in a sandy area between coral beds. The second site was a drift dive around as island which had more soft corals than I've seen in a long time. Fantastic site with huge schools of fish and lots of great small life in among the corals.

After lunch we headed to Leinster Bay in search of turtles. We choose a quiet spot and started our snorkel. Not five minutes in we found a young Hawkesbill turtle and followed him for a while. There were tons of bar jacks and yellow tailed jacks. On the way back we found a large porcupine fish. He hid from us pretty quickly but not before we got a few pictures.

Dinner: Da Livio - exceptional Italian across from Lime Inn
