January 26 1st Timers Luck...

What a Pleasure today was. The wind was bearable and the large swell held off until we headed home. Kristina and Fred joined us today from chilly Detroit for their first taste of Keys diving. So it was no surprise they were able to stay down for a 55 minute dive in 67* water wearing only shorty suits. They came to the surface beaming as they just had the dive of the lives. Molasses delivered everything Keys diving has to offer. Eagle Rays, a Nurse Shark, Junior, the Colossal Grouper, and a Sting Ray hiding in the sand. I have to admit after a 1st dive like that, the second dive seems a little lacking. However, there is a lot of life on the reef to enjoy. The schools of various snappers, butterfly fish, trumpet fish and more, along with the coral, sponges and fans make every dive a joy. So come visit us here in Key Largo. Kiddo can't wait to meet you!
