Back on the Rock, back in the water!

Cheers from Koh Tao,

After a much needed holiday to Laos, I am back in paradise. First things first, I went to Sail Rock. We had 7 divers and 2 dive masters. After a quick run on flat seas, we get to the dive site and see there is only one other boat with 2 divers. We basically had the dives to ourselves. Upon entering the water, I looked down through crystal clear water to see the entire site down to 30 meters/100 feet.
There a couple of memorial plaques off the main pinnacle. If there is a thermocline, then it is impossible to find. As there was shockingly brilliant viz, we went straight to the caves that house the memorials. The rest of the dives consisted of tons of fish. Notably the massive school of Giant Barracuda, free swimming Puffer Fish, baby Eels, massive Groupers, and Emperor Fish. 
All in all it was a wicked way to return to Koh Tao. Yet another reason to be here in paradise! Get here when you can.

Jeff
