I got up at 6 am and went snorkeling. The corals start in about 4 feet of water, about 15 feet from the beach. I don't think I've ever seen so much cool stuff so close to a beach. If you go out about 100 meters there's a 3000 foot drop off (wall) that is popular for scuba divers. I swam out there to check it out - kinda creepy to see the ocean floor drop away into blackness so fast.
The water is clear and warm. No sharks seen (whew!). Tyree had a waterproof camera and took some pictures (thanks Tyree!)...
This one was probably more than 6 feet wide.
There's a small black fish right in the center of this photo - it's an invasive lionfish. If I had had a way to catch it, I would have!
And proof that I was there - the ubiquitous picture of my feet!
And, last photo of the day...a cute (tiny!) anole that I spotted on a leaf during a break in the meeting.
