Villa Blanca Wall - 1 Dec 2002

Excellent dive, great diversity of fish life. Two giant Parrotfish at the end, numerous Spotted and Green Morays - Divemaster Chino spotted a Moray which he ended up spooking, and it shot like a bullet!

We saw Starfish, we drifted past one of the channel marker buoys, drifting past Sand Dollar Resort and their boats. We had some really good combo shots - Lobsters and Arrow Crabs with a Yellowtail Damselfish and Rock Beauty. I had a quick "drift-by" a Rock Beauty, where I prepped my camera ahead of time so I could get a shot before it saw me and spooked.

Brittle Stars in Sponges, a pair of Grey Angels (one scarred), a Spotted Eel wrapped around a coral head, a Flounder, and best of all - a pair of French Angels, which escaped by turning sideways and letting the current catch them and rip them away. What an awesome trick!
