i will take note of what you said thanks dudeOriginally posted by Fatum:I'll leave the details to the others,
but just remember these points
1. you're going diving, not to plunder, leave the giant clams, oysters, lobsters, fish ,crabs whatever alone ....
2. corals are dangerous, some can sting you, others are delicate, you touch them they die, keep your hands to yourself, everyone's happy ....
3. the sea is not a dustbin, watch where you toss your plastics and rubbish ....
4. take only memories behind, no corals, no seashells, if everyone takes a piece, then it becomes a big free-for-all
enjoy and have fun ! it's a wonderful sport ...![]()
