Underwater photos at
El Portal and Mole
Caleta de Fuste, Fuerteventura.
Day 2! Took a few more photos today, water was a lot calmer but still had 2 foot waves. Honestly never seen anything like it. Alan was our Captain for the 1st dive and sea cover and Gary and Wayne Fleet were our guides, Txomin was our captain and sea cover for the 2nd dive. Water temperature stayed at 18ยบ all week and I certainly didn't feel the cold all wrapped up. These photos (as all of the albums) consist of 2 dives, the 1st was at el Portal and the 2nd was at Mole (which is off the dock in shallow water) This was also the day that when these dives were over a few of the divers continued a dive in the harbour. Of course I was there and they found an Angel Shark. The photos at the end of the shark were taken by Gary Fleet. Enjoy!

Just goes to show how hard it is to see some fish. Unfortunately putting your hand down on this little guy can leave you in a bit of pain.

This fish would not leave David alone to take photos. Anywhere David turned he popped into frame. I couldn't stop laughing.

Bob is a Damselfish that lives in this pot. He has been here for years and even has a book written by a customer about him. Famous Bob!

Bob's Neighbour
This Damselfish lived in another piece of wreckage not to far from Bob's pot. He was there on other dives we did so I'm assuming he has now found a permanent home.

Sorry about the quality but he was waving at me hahaha

Cuttlefish
He is hiding in here and looks like a rock. I hope you all find him but I wanted to show how well they blend in.

Looking into this, no one I talked to knew of this guy and never seen one before. So hopefully I can find an I.D. and get back to you.
