First dive in South Africa. First I went to look at the reef. At the start I had trouble with my mask, it kept filling with water. During the dive I swapped masks with Dylan. There was a lot to see, such as thousands of crayfish and lots of colourful coral. The best part was swimming around, through and between the coral.
