Dive in the Annabay
During a dive here I spotted an extremely rare fish. It looks like a bird with fins at the wingtips. It is a Polka-Dot Batfish. According to Paul Human "not reported in the Caribbean". Apparently the fish can be found here. This is the last place where I would look.
Don't try to find the fish at this place. Diving in the harbor is not permitted unless you have approval from the harbor authorities. There is a high fine for diving here without permission.

Crash site dives
These pictures are taken during several dives at this location. Most are pictures of the small plane wreck. The parts are so widely scattered that you probably need more than 1 dive to find them all.

Car wrecks at Marie Pampun
Cars from the fifties of last century were dumped here to form an artificial reef. More than fifty years later it is a very worthwile to take a good look at the wrecks. Just be careful because of the depth. This is a dive for advanced divers.
