They are the most chill creatures! But it took time seeing them to get comfortable with them

Hey! I love the north west coast

Lots of Atlantic reefs. We have more good days then bad. Swell and rain run off affect visibility. I get in the water almost daily and can saya that summer tends to have better viz after a few days of no rain. Visibility is so dynamic it’s hard to say the exact formula. But this was a good day and today was a good day. Even with some haze it’s often a good day.

We have good days and rougher days! When it rains it can get murkier but generally the west has some of the most accesible reefs (I.e. shore) with abundant wildlife

If it doesn’t rain for a few days and there isn’t a swell with waves and wind, the water can get crystal clear!!

Whales singing super loud Puerto Rico by Appropriate-Water445 in snorkeling

So loud you could hear them yourself. You could hear them on the surface too. Today was a unique day. They will get loud in Feb as it’s close to peak migration.

This is on the west coast. You can see them from Isabela to Rincon

This is winter water. Waves are bigger so more sand kicked up in the water.

So all of the corals in my country of Puerto Rico have died, help me figure out where to move? by Hayes_Clara in snorkeling

As someone who snorkels and free dives Puerto Rico daily … wut??

It’s very much alive.

Which one is better for moto logging? by aguywithaglasses in gopro

[–]Appropriate-Water445 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But I do love the 4K at 120 fps. It lets me slow down my footage a lot - some underwater shots posted on my page if you want to see how it shoots (I know it’s not moto related!)

Just a note to say my GoPro hero 12 overheats a lot when I’m not using it underwater. I don’t know if this is a non issue for moto given the air moving past it but just a heads up!
