Location: Ille Fourche
Today began with a motor from Gustavia to Ille Fourche. When we arrived at the beautiful bay surrounded by dusty and rocky headlands, we began to review a PADI knowledge development for the naturalist diver specialty. After lunch, we went diving and circumnavigated a small island just outside the bay. We managed to see a nurse shark and a spotted eagle ray, which totally made the dive. As part of the naturalist, we also had to observe five vertebrates, five invertebrates, and two plant species underwater, which we then identified using the ID books and logged. On the way back, Mike sprung a rescue scenario on the rescue divers. They managed to save the victim, so they have completed their training. Congratulations, Paul and Chris. We ended the day with a Mexican night dinner and a marine biology class.
