Biologist’s Log: July 4, 2013

First off, Happy Independence Day! Well, it’s officially our last full day out on the water (continued…)

We started it off right with a student-led dive at Rainbow Canyon on Pelican Island. The students loved the dive and thought it was the perfect last dive for the voyage. After the dive we did some more sailing. Capt. Chance was super impressed with how hard the students worked and how much they had learned in just a few short weeks. After a couple hours we arrived at Key Bay, Peter Island and enjoyed some recreation time filled with snorkeling, beach combing, kayaking, turtle tagging, watersports, and just hanging out and having fun. After a yummy dinner and dessert, we sipped on hot chocolate and watched a slideshow of all our FATHOMS adventures. It was the perfect ending to a perfect day!
