We woke to sunny skies and calm seas. Started the day with
some coconut bread French toast (thanks to the previous tenants who left the
syrup). The water looked so inviting that we headed up the beach to a couple close by snorkeling spots before lunch. Spent the afternoon reading, relaxing and enjoying the hammocks. As the sun was setting we geared up for a twilight
dive at Suez Canal. What turned out to be one of our best night dives ever, started with G spotting an octopus, then a nurse shark feeding amongst the rubble of an old peer. Moving on from the peer, we headed out a little deeper and saw plenty of lobster
wondering about, a couple sting rays, and the creepy barracuda that was lurking in the shadows for our whole dive. The highlight of the dive was on our way back when G spotted another octopus out hunting. We spent 15 minutes watching him move
between the coral heads and fully encompass the smaller ones looking for food. Picked up pizza on the way home for a late dinner to complete a great day and a fantastic last dive for the trip.
