We dove those two sites numerous times on this trip.
Very manageable entry with a nice long swim out over the sandy bottom to a double reef.
It's all the activity from the small critters, that makes that long swim so enjoyable.... at least for us.
There are many coral heads.... separated from each other dotting the sandy bottom.
And each seems to be the territory of a specific critter or critters.
While diving this same site, on the day before this.... I had caught a brief glimpse of this eel as we swam by.
So when we came to that same coral head again.... I went over for a closer look.
Getting this pixture.... of an eel that I had never seen before.
My research since.... has led me to believe that it is a Yellowhead Moray.
Seems like they are pretty common in satlwater aquariums.... but not usually found in Caribbean waters.
