Reef Check Dive Pics

Below are some photos from my Reef Check dive certification course.  Underwater dive pics to come soon....

Debrief before the dive

Another debrief and assignment of dive tasks.  I was assigned to count fish.  Other teams counted invertebrates and noted substrates (environmental conditions).


These guys had been fishing illegally. They caught a lot of the species of fish we were charged to count!  They were hurting the reefs by fishing for these particular kinds of fish!

Fish that wouldn't be included in my survey... :(
