Col. Panic's Journal: Boat Dives

This was the real thing. Sunday we went about a mile off the Lighthouse Point coast and dove a couple of reefs at 40-60 feet. The depth was a little intimidating at first - just swimming downward for so long was ... different. When we got to the bottom there were some really cool coral and some brightly colored purple and yellow fish. Someone saw a shark but I missed it.

I cannot wait to get back out there. The only problem is the safety margin we followed didn't leave us a lot of bottom time. I want to get certified for Nitrox so I can stay down longer. Also night and wreck diving sounds like a lot of fun, when I get the chance :)
