Comments On this morning (7am ) snorkel outing, saw a few Yellowtail Snappers, Horse-Eye Jacks, some Parrotfish, and one Stingray. When I looked down 30feet to the Stingray, I was positioned about 300 feet offshore, facing the Grand Roatan Resort beachfront. I recorded the meandering Stingray for about 1 minute then shut off my Olympus TG5: BIG MISTAKE! No more than a few seconds after that was a sighting I'll never forget: a 6-8 foot long Caribbean Reef shark who executed an about face and disappeared as fast as he appeared. Awesome sight: makes up for the mediocre reef experience. I guess the early bird gets to see pelagic superstars!
