| The moon snails and small critters are fun to watch during
your safety stop. |

There are many, many different varieties of Sea
Stars to be found ( commonly called "Starfish"). |
| Keep your eyes open, and take your time. You will be
amazed at what you will find. One of my favorite "little
fish" are the hundreds of Gobies that you find on every dive.
These are about 5" long, and blend very well with their background,
which often makes them hard to spot. |

Contrary to what most warm water divers think, there are
many colorful sponges and soft corals in these cold waters. |
| Orange and White Sea Cucumbers are vivid and brilliantly
colored. They are also quite abundant. |

Sea Lemons, like this one, and Nudibranchs are also quite
common ( if you keep your eyes open). |
