Because the sea is uncorrupted and completely natural, you may come face to face with animal life that you’ve never even imagined in your wildest dreams. Remember, the reefs are fragile and very much alive. Always practice caution when getting close --no standing or touching, for instance, as human contact can and will destroy the beautiful coral. Along with the coral, you’ll encounter some fascinating creatures: barracuda, the “Tiger of the Sea”; basslet, a colorful, shy reef fish; long-spined black urchin, dangerous to the touch (so do yourself a favor and don’t touch); sea turtles, large and elegant; squirrel fish, it may seem strange to the eye, but it’s completely harmless and immensely interesting; and the trumpet fish, this color shifting fish can be found hanging upside down waiting for its miniscule prey.
There’s no end to the amount of intriguing things you’ll discover on your scuba dive.
