Wyatt in Chichiriviche
A Daily Photo Essay of My Journey

The diving was great in Chichiriviche De La Costa. We went 5 times over the course of the  weekend.  Joanne, Cy, and our guide Gustavo (far right) went on one deep dive, one drift dive, and one night dive.  We also went on a dive to a small sunken boat in the bay and another to an underwater memorial statue.  On both of those dives we explored a coral reef.  There were many colorful and interesting fish.  The highlights were petting a puffer-fish during the night dive and watching a school of a 1000 fish swarm around us during the drift dive.  The trumpet fish were also very interesting. I am just sorry I didn't have an underwater camera.
