Great pics Semo, I have no idea where Raotan is but I'll google it after my response.

OK, now I know it's in Honduras.

Thanks for the pics and the geography lesson.

😎 👍

It is the same when you are stupid.

I think it is some type of Pipefish.  I have seen many Pipefish, but never one of them with the hairy appearance.  They are similar to a Seahorse.

Wow, those are some very cool shots SEMO.


My wife and I are headed to Hawaii in September, I'm hoping to do something similar while diving and snorkeling.

My wife & I went to Maui for our anniversary 2 years ago and I did some diving there.  The diving was good, but the reef is much different than in the Caribbean.  The reef structure was not very tall, and the types of coral are different.  The sea life was abundant.  I saw a number of very big sea turtles.  Many of the fish species are similar, but had different color or markings than Caribbean fish, and some species I saw were endemic to Hawaii.
