Thanks to the generous donation by the Pastoriza - Taveres family, the cannons are in the water and have created an amazing new multi-level dive here in out bay. Be sure and check out the great photo opportunities.
When you end this dive, you will be at the Staghorn Coral dome project, where we are repopulating the reef with corals from our nurseries. Follow this project on the Sosua Bay Rejuvenation Project facebook page and on my blog page here on my website.
Thank-you to the Pastoriza family for donating 5 new domes, one for each of their grandchildren. It will be pretty cool to be able to watch the corals grow over their lifetime. Nice to see the ocean will be in good hands for years to come.
June 6 marked the one year anniversary of our monthly beach and divesite clean-up. Thanks to everyone who has come out to help, to all our sponsors, and to all the dive shops for your involvement. We ARE making a difference.
June 9 to 23, Centro Leon - a major gallery in Santiago, is holding an exhibition of my underwater photos to raise awareness of our environment, of the beautiful diving we have here on the north coast, and of the benefits that diving can bring to the Dominican Republic. Thank-you to everyone involved for making this project a reality.
And the challenge: well I was diagnosed with a detached retina and had to undergo emergency surgery to repair it. Although it means no diving and no flying for 3 months or so, the operation seemed to go well and it is healing!
Thanks for reading, please explore my website, and dive safely and help save our reefs.
