Comments This is a unique diving experience. After a classroom lecture on how the dive works, safety tips and an overview of several creatures we might see, our group of 5 headed for the boat. We rode out aways, geared up and proceeded one at a time to attach to a line (2 on one side of the boat and 3 on the other) and desend to about 50 feet with provided lights. We then spent about an hour of my watching multitudes of tiny and not so tiny jellies and various creatures float by. The dive master circled around the group and used his light to call our attention to some of the larger jellies. This magical experience ended much too quickly with a massive squirt by a passing squid.
