Monday morning we went on a pair of shore dives to the north of the resort; the first site was called “Oil Slick Leap” and the second one I’ve always known as “Old Blue”, but is now marked as “Tolu”. Whatever the name, it’s a pretty site, and we also saw a second bait ball.
In the afternoon, after a little down time, we did a third dive, on the house reef.
