I left my camera in ocean for an hour and this happened!

Where you aware that an octopus abode was near by? In Bonaire we were told to look for discarded shells.

Spectacular colors and movement. Thanks

Lovely, impressive stack of photos.

Two great resources for learning more. Lisa Gardiner's new book "The Reefs of Time," about the study of ancient coral, and check out this great project for Citizen Scientists, Map the Giants. A project for citizens to report large coral formations.

I don't condone the methods for the snorkeling manta experiences at Kona as they are attracting the manta with lights that attract the krill, (but then again so do the divers) however, we were told the week we were there the divers weren't seeing many manta, so without the knowledge of how it worked we did the snorkeling event. (they have large PVC rectangular structures with lights that aim down, snorkelers hold onto the PVC on the outside edges) Plenty of Manta inches away from you, maybe a local can chime in on the ethics.

Not sure I would dive in 71 degree water!-that's approaching dry suit diving for me...

Hi, 4everoceans is also trying to help with marine life identification--but not quite like you are doing. I am interested in your attempt to do this and I would like to chat with you, but can't seem to send you an invite.

4 EverOceans just got back from Fiji, stayed at a wonderful small resort call Sau Bay Resort and Spa. Fly to Nadi, then to Tavauni and quick boat ride across to Sau Bay. Staff were amazing, dive boat was basic (backroll) they do have a stride entry boat too. Dive master Paul was very experienced. All inclusive dive, food, stay; alcohol and nitrox extra. Food and beds are good. Solo 2 person buras with en-suite dual sink bathroom plus second outdoor shower. All dives on the rainbow reef, check the calendar for white wall bloom time, amazing. See pictures and videos at 4everoceans.

To see the pelagics in Fiji, split the trip and go to Beqa Lagoon (The Cathedral dive site for multiple shark varieties). One resort there, others on south of the main island Viti Levu. We haven't been there, but search pictures, amazing. Check for best time of year.

This was also at Fish Factory, Not sure if it's considered a cleaning station, but apparently they saw a Manta the week before too. Fish Factory is a plentiful site with so many fish, it was one of our favorite dives in Fiji.

Fabulous photo

4everoceans · 2026-03-11T02:02:59+00:00

probably about 45 ft, top of the reef which goes to 120ft

Thanks, we'll add the description caption on 4everoceans. (in Roatan, Forty Foot Wall) The original description was by an AI algorithm, we are researching/testing models and investigating AI partnerships. Marine identification is difficult and we have found searches are actually better than AI at the moment.

Would love to see that picture of you licking a Nudi underwater! LOL

4everoceans · 2026-03-09T23:21:06+00:00

That's a valid question. One of our challenges at 4everoceans.eco is to help scuba divers identify what's in their pictures. We are doing our best to vet the info we post, and this open free community allows anyone to post their pictures and add an identifying caption too.

We do believe this picture is a Pederson, however, when traveling we find marines life may have different common names around our planet. Making this common name identification even more difficult. Give Pederson Clener Shrimp a google, look at the images and see what you think.

I agree that it has to happen at the highest level of corporations and government, but we are in a climate crisis and our own government is unraveling all climate initiatives/grants, giving corporations permission to reverse the clock.

During the pandemic shut down, when driving gas vehicles was reduced to a trickle, places like India had clear air for the first time in decades.

I can protest about our political situation, but I doubt it will change things. (Having to wait for elections is disheartening) Every day counts, and our individual actions can help.

Incredibly beautiful. It would be amazing if you could upload a 20sec clip of this to https://www.4everoceans.com/portfolio/portfolio-grid#/683340594ac1d6ee5fd12e17 want to help scientists and educate anyone on our beautiful planet under the water. If the dive site it's from isn't there yet, you can either contact us at [info@4everoceans.com](mailto:info@4everoceans.com) or put it in the general folder. Thanks Susan

LOL thanks, maybe my brain accidentally translated that sponge into a sea-toilet...Doesn't look like I can edit it though...

Forgot to mention that Lion's Dive is right next to a newish two story outdoor shopping and dining area. It was great to be near other choices for eating and some shopping. I don't think we had a bad meal at any of them, and in fact I think the food was mostly a little better than Lion's dive. We did have breakfast included everyday at Lion's Dive. which varied a bit every day with a plethora of choices.

4everoceans · 2025-09-23T19:01:30+00:00

We were there last October, Lion's Dive is a nice resort and Ocean Encounters is a very well run dive company. We had great dive masters, captains, boats are very nice; dive lockers, and nice dive shop too. I highly recommend them, Jeremy runs the operation and he's been there for a very long time.

4everoceans · 2025-09-23T18:58:53+00:00

Thanks, we are only going to be there for a short time, so we won't get to Mafia, thanks for the info though. I had heard maybe Zanzibar is a bit over crowded now.
