We started the day at the Silk Caye in the shallow water around the island. Tim was completing the confined water skills for PADI OW Certification and then having his first checkout dive. I occupied myself watching some tiny fish while Tim was put through his paces.

Shark Ray Alley
Every trip we’ve had out to the Silk Cayes includes a stop off at Shark-Ray Alley. This is an area where local fisherman have been cleaning their catch and the local nurse sharks, rays, and a couple turtles know it. This loggerhead turtle was a good 4′ long.
