I’ve posted some photos recently from the shark and cenote dives. Now here are some photos from our reef dive.
Bonaire Turtle
In January 2020, we spent a week on the island of Bonaire with The Neighbors (our close friends and former neighbors). I loved the condo we rented on the beach, which allowed me to snorkel every day. One of those days, I spent a good ten minutes with this little guy.
Great Turtle Brewery
Sorry for the slight absence from my blog and social media. I needed a break and took it.
I took this photo of the Great Turtle Brewery bar on my last trip. This nice brewery sits on Mackinac Island Michigan. I’d suggest you check it out.

Barbados Turtle
One of the wonderful activities that is very easy to do in Barbados (with or without a tour guide) is to snorkel with turtles. There are lots of tour companies who will pick you up, put you on a boat, give you snorkeling gear, put guides in the water, provide lunch, provide drinks, etc…. Or you can take your own gear, do a little research, and just swim out from the beach.
While we were in Barbados, we snorkeled with turtles using both methods. I had a great time both times. So tonight I am sharing one of my photos from snorkeling with the Barbados turtles. I think his/her name should be Crush, which was the name of the turtle in Finding Nemo.
Hawksbill Turtle
While we were on the island of Roatan, which is the largest Honduras’ Bay Island, I got a few dives completed. Honestly, Roatan has some of the best scuba diving I’ve done anywhere in the world. The reefs are very healthy, short boat trips, and tons of sea life. I’ve been to Roatan twice and both times it’s been amazing diving.
To make it that much better, the people are super friendly, the island is beautiful, and everything is reasonable from a price perspective. During both of my visits, I dove with Anthony’s Key Resort. They have great facilities, boats, equipment and resort reefs. I would highly recommend them.
During my dives, I saw Lion Fish, Lobsters, Groupers, a ton of Hawksbill Turtles. I found this guy relaxing on the reef. He just sat there letting me take his picture over and over. I wish I was back in Roatan again……
Barbados Turtle
I captured so many great photos from my recent family vacation. You’ll probably get tired of them. You’ll just have to accept my apology now, so we can move on and enjoy the photos.
Today, I have a photo for you that I took underwater off the coast of Barbados while on an excursion with everyone in our travel group. I have an underwater housing for my big Nikon camera, but it is difficult (bulky) to take this on some excursions. So on this day, I used MJ’s pocket Canon camera with her underwater housing. Pretty good picture of this wild turtle.
