Fort Wetherill, Rhode Island

A post about last weekend before this weekend: So last weekend I went with my friend Mike to dive at Fort Wetherill in Rhode Island. On Saturday the visibility was up to 30 feet! We dove the left side of the cove, which was only about 20 feet, super colorful, and a great dive. Unfortunately, Sunday visibility was back down to about 8 feet. Both days I was able to play with all sorts of sea creatures, including anemones, horshoe crabs (notice the picture of his belly!), lobsters, and different types of starfish. I also learned how to use my dive computer, which tracks essentially everything about a dive, including depth, temperature, how much oxygen your body is getting, how much nitrogen absorbs into your body, how quickly you move up and down, etc. It's SO cool because afterwards it wirelessly transfers everything to your laptop, where you can actually look at your dive profile. As you look at the pictures, notice the huge horseshoe crab I picked up, as well as the "italian spider crab," talking with his hands! I'm so grateful to have an underwater camera!
