Comments	The tropical fish are among the largest that I have seen for their species and their variety is great. Aldora is located in the tourist centre of San Miguel and easily accessible by 20 minute walk from our villa in the residential section. We were diving two times per week on average and could call the dive shop the previous day and were accommodated with a place on board. For photographers, this is drift diving, so shooting small critters is a special challenge as you have to get behind a coral head in the lee of the current - you do not have much time as you have to stay with the group.
