Comments	[None]this an exploratory trip for Aggressor. The objective was to determine if Glovers reef was a good alternative to lighthouse and Turnerreef. First thing to note is that the boat swings a lot in Belize and even more on Glovers. Having compass and sausage is required. Several times we missed the boat when returning from our dive. The crew was great and did pick people up. They also removed fins while you were still in the water. Very nice. Sealife. Well lots of small reef fish but not much else. Did have a pod of dolphins follow the boat a couple of times. Biggest thing was a Nassau Grouper and the very occasional moray. Night divers had lots of octopus who were very unafraid and hung around for 15 minutes to investigate us. We only saw 4 nurse sharks but their behaviour was unique in my experience. The first was a small pup maybe 3 feet long. Who swam out of his hole right up to me and lay on the bottome for a minute or so until it was bored and then went back under the coral. The next day on a wall 2 good size sharks approached so close it nuzzled it nose in my chest wanting me to scratch its back. It slowly turned around and swam back to my diver partner and did the same thing. The following day on another site we were swimming across this sand bank when we again approached by a larger nurse and the same thing occurred only the shark stayed around for a couple of minutes. I know you aren’t supposed to touch the wildlife but it is hard when they insist on groping you. We were told by a dive master living on Glovers that the big fish do come in January. Interesting divings,incredible interactions with the octopus and nurse pretty walls but sure could have used more wildlife.
