Today we only did two dives. We only had six people on the boat, so it was a nice small group. We dove Ulong Channel and Coral Paradise again. We had told our dive master that we wanted to do Coral Paradise again when it was sunny since the first time we dove there it was cloudy and rainy. We started out our day today again with heavy rains and dark clouds. We did our first dive at Ulong channel and then did our 1 hour 20 minute surface interval and waited to see what the weather was going to do next. It was partly sunny so we decided to go ahead and dive at Coral Paradise. Part way through the dive the sun decided to come out and by the time we were done diving it was gorgeous at the surface to.
Both dives were really nice. There was not much current on the first dive, which was actually quite nice. We drifted Ulong Channel and were able to enjoy all sorts of fish and critters and were able to see the world's largest formation of lettuce leaf coral. It was unbelievable and of course filled with fish. Coral Paradise was nice again as well. Lots and lots of fish, a school of barracudas and indescribable amounts of coral.
When we surfaced from our dive at Coral Paradise the weather had cleared nicely and we started our journey back. The water color there was just amazing. As we were headed back Eric went up to the bow of the boat to take some video footage and as we were going along we spotted and eagle ray in the water in front of the boat, so our boat captain turned the boat around and we followed the eagle ray for quite a while and Eric got some cool footage.
