Jan 18 – Last Dive day on Vacation

Today is the last day that we can dive on this vacation; we need to allow 24 hours after our last dive before we can fly. Today is very calm and we have wanted to dive Atlantis which has been the Kite Boarders’ location for a while. The reason we haven’t done it is because of the dangers of diving at the same spot as the kiters. They are supposed to stay in the deeper blue water, but frequently they sail in the shallows. We have heard of one near miss between a diver surfacing and a kiter, so we have been reluctant to dive here. As today is calm there is a good chance that no one will be kiting at the location, so we dove there. We ended up seeing a Spotted Eagle Ray and I managed to get some video of him swimming by. On this dive I was taking mostly video, so I only have a few shots.
