Diving the Coral Reefs of Belize

Diving, flipping, open, carousing, barrel rolling, succulent open water dives. 2 of them. Tuffey and Victorian Canyons. The coral, spectacular. Life changing, breeding glorious vibrant life.

Old Reliable

The morning waters reflected like mirrors in the stillness of the warm Florida sunshine.
