In the Twilight

Miguel’s Diving can often customize diving to the desire of our guests. That was the case yesterday. Upon request, we did a late afternoon dive at the ever-popular Traffic Jam dive site. At this time of the year, it often rains in the afternoons. We arrived at the dive site in a driving rain. We descended into the warm ocean. Light conditions were very dim. The sheer coral wall took on an eerie glow. At 30 meters and below, huge gorgonian sea fans with polyps extended, shimmered in the remaining light. Visibility was an ethereal 30 meters. When we surfaced, the rain had stopped, leaving silky smooth seas. On the way back to Gorontalo City, the setting sun turned the ocean a light lavender.
