Fintastic Diving Adventures

The Napoleon Snake Eel (Ophichthus bonaparti) is a rare find for us. Usually found buried in the sand with only its head barely protruding out, most divers swim right over not noticing. But not us-we found it and we had a photoshoot. Definitely our best find of the day.

Day 1 of diving in Puerto Galera with Atlantis Resorts. We decided to pick our favorite 15 underwater pictures from each day of diving! Enjoy it as much as we are!

Rosy Frogfish (Abantennarius rosaceus) was an amazing find on our first dive. Couldn’t get enough of this little guy. Super small, but put on a show for us. Frogfish are one of my favorite fish to find. Their camouflage keeps them hidden in the most unique places.

Philippines is home for the next few weeks! We made it! We have an awesome group of divers and snorkelers and we are so stoked to be back in the Philippines with our awesome friends at Atlantis! Two full weeks of tons of diving, adventures, and fun. We will do our best to post daily. Get ready for some amazing pictures-above and below the water!

The Salt Pier is one of our favorites as well!

This Green Sea Turtle (Chelonia mydas) was just chilling when we found him sitting next to the coral. I have more videos and pictures to come, but he just sat there and was shining and rubbing his shell against the coral. He let me take pictures for days. Green sea turtles are mostly herbivores and they eat sea grass. They migrate extremely long distances unlike all the other sea turtles. They are on the endangered list because people still hunt them for their shells, skin, and eggs. Green sea turtles have a short snout and their beak is unhooked. They have just two prefrontal scales between their eyes, unlike the other turtles that have four or five. Their carapace (shell) is composed of five central scutes down the middle and four pairs of lateral scutes on the sides.
