First Dominica Dive
10 February 2017 | Portsmouth, Dominica
But not the last. The shore here consists of a large boulder field going down to sand at about 80ft. We are surmising that it is the remainder when the sea washes all the ash away after an eruption. Anyway, it makes for very interesting terrain and amazing water clarity.
Again, there is not a lot of large fishes due to over-fishing but the small stuff is varied and fascinating. I do need to improve my macro photography to do it justice.
It is hard to fault the fishermen as they are a low tech, subsistence operation and they work incredibly hard. Interestingly one of the few modern facilities in the town is the fish market complex, "generously" funded by the Japanese. Those whaling votes at the UN must have cost a bundle....
