Today we embarked upon a discovery scuba dive with our resorts dive center. Although Koh Tao is a diving paradise with some of the cheapest certification classes in the world, I didn't really want to expend that much mental capacity to study and take tests (yet)! So the discovery dive was perfect. We took a short class, practiced in the pool and then hit the water.
Within minutes, our guide was leading us lower and lower and in to previously invisible spots of our beautiful bay. A whole world of corals of all shapes and sizes served as the scenic backdrop for the zillions of fish munching, swimming and pooping (yes, they just let their fish droppings out whenever they please!) around us.
It was pretty easy to breathe calmly underwater however, my left ear was difficult to equalize, especially 30+ feet down! Maybe a sign I'm not meant to be Scuba Suzy. To top off the day, we repeated an amazing dinner of fresh salad and fruity coconut milk soup (delicious!) with our toes in the sand and the sound of waves lapping the shores. Just one of the many romantic dinners Thailand has treated us to haha!
