Comments	Group of fifteen divers well treated on boat by crew. Very few trips or boats out due to the Covid. Crew enthusiastic with good food and 3 or 4 dives per day. Water clarity good but a cool 74-75 degrees. this caused many to wear heavier suits and corresponding weights. Very lively healthy reefs with plentiful smaller sea life. Surprised that sea life not more diverse. Saw no sharks, one octopus and turtle the whole trip. Good boat and crew. Tarak our divemaster was excellent.
