Turtle Day!!

Hi Bumpy!

Hi Bumpy!

Finally a super perfect day!  It is really “hit and miss” lately…… we never know what we are going to get in the way of conditions.  But today was spectacular!  It was just perfect all the way around…… nice paddling conditions…….. Turtles……. Sunny……. Warm water…… Good visibility…. Great swimming.  I couldn’t have ordered a more perfect day!  Even “Bumpy” showed up and hung out with me today and posed for several photos!  That’s Bumpy in the photo above…… What a ham!image

I had had seven turtles down at the boat ramp all to myself!  Then on my way in a turtle appeared, so I paddled out again to hang around with it!  That made eight turtles for today!  Swimming was so nice too.  I saw more fish today than I have seen in weeks.  The water was very clear so I was able to get a better look at the reef and coral.  A lot of the smaller coral looks bleached but I was happy to see quite a few of the larger coral are still alive.  This warm water is wreaking havoc with the marine life!  Hopefully now that it’s Fall…… Things will start to normalize.  It sure was a great beach day!


Beautiful!
