We could hear the rumbling of thunder as we departed Ishigaki this morning. They sky was dark☂️ However, as we came up from the first dive the dark clouds had gone and the sea was very calm✨

The manta rays greeted us from the very start of the dive at manta point✨ We saw four of them and they swam very close♪♪♪



For the afternoon dive we explored the landscape in Arakawa☀️✨

Also spotted small crabs and shrimps on the dives. Below, an orangutang crab🦀

And this anemone partner shrimp🦐

And a magnificent Tomoberthella martensi🐚

Looks like… more rain tomorrow☂️
