The south wind turned softer, and the condition was better.

The water visibility has been murky these days, but has significantly improved today 🙂

Maybe the rough sea condition of the past days brought some cleaner water.

A Bluestripe pipefish – the combination of vivid blue and orange stands out in the cave.

I would probably believe if you tell me you got this shot in your garden 🙂

A juvenile Regal angelfish.

Gorgeous prawn-goby.

I like this English name better than its Japanese name – Kubiaka Haze (Red neck goby).

It is more colorful than just red.

Yellow tang has a cute mouth.

A Crocodilefish.

Very good at camouflage.

The reef was covered with Sea goldie!

I love the way Upside-down jellyfish swim.

The view from the bottom was great with clearer water 🙂

The corals of the Sakiea area have mostly turned white, due to the high water temperature… 🙁

I hope the water temperature will start to go down soon…

We have two new open water divers!

Congratulations!

Manta City today was just an empty “City”…

I hope the mantas will come back in the autumn.
