Location: Great Harbor, Peter Island

Hey, it’s Jackson here. This morning, we woke up to a very short motor over to the opposite side of GHP, where we moored for a couple of hours. After some delicious breakfast burritos prepared by Matthew and Kate, we got ready to dive into a coral wall! Under the water, we saw some awesome rock formations, and Sienna, Reese, and Sam all saw a lionfish. We also picked up some trash on the sea floor. When we took our kits off, we went skiing. Scottie showed off her kneeboarding skills, Ari got up for the first time, and I slalom skied. After that, we had some awesome grilled cheeses and moved on over to the wreck of the Willy T, a sunken bar (complete with fake skeletons). Hays & I saw a super cool toadfish on the bottom, and Lyla and Evan got really close to a barracuda. Once we had made the short trip back to GHP, we did some more water sports. Megan went flying on the kneeboard, and Reese caught some air on the wakeboard. Then, all four Diveside boats rafted together on Oceanstar’s mooring ball to create a mega raft. We finished off our day with a great summertime Thanksgiving meal. We are keeping the good times rolling!
