Remarks:First 'cave' dive (it was not really a cave, as it had quite some holes in the roof). Entered the water spotting a large titan triggerfish digging in the sand for food, with some other fish surrounding it, waiting for it to catch something. Swam through an arch and found a huge red sea coral grouper showing off its teeth. At 6m we entered the 'cave'. Spotted a blackspotted sweetlips in the cave, and a giant moray between the rocks on the way out. We continued along some great coral gardens. Lots of anemones with clownfish. The guide spotted a nudibranch Pyjama chromodorid). Again some yellowspotted trevally. Very nice dive.
