Belize Vacation - Day 2 First Dive Day

We were excited for our first day of diving in Belize. We were lucky enough to get in touch with the same dive master, Johnny, we had on our first trip to Belize in 2017. Johnny Boy Tours picked us up at our dock at 9:00. We had a great experience with him in the past and a great experience during this trip, too.

Boogs walking to the end of our dock to get on the dive boat.

I love the view of a dive boat heading out to a new dive site. A year is a long time to wait to get back underwater.

We headed out to the Hol Chan Marine Reserve for our first dive. We did not take our cameras on the first dive. J2 had not been diving since he was certified five years ago. He had never been diving in the ocean. I wanted us to keep a close eye on him to make sure he was good.

After our first dive, we took a break on the beach, at Ramon's Village Resort, while they put new tanks on the boat. I went straight for the hammocks. Boogs offered to gently swing my hammock. 

After half an hour, we were back on the boat to travel to B&D dive site. J2 was feeling a bit seasick. He threw up right before getting into the water on the second dive.

The reefs were not as vibrant as when we went last time, but there was still plenty of things to look at.

We made sure to have Johnny get a group picture for us.

It was so cool to see squids for the first time. In person, they were a really pretty color of light purple.

It was a great diving day.

We spent the rest of the day relaxing on the Airbnb property. We swam in the pool and went to bed early because we had an early morning planned for the next day.
