After I passed all of the written tests and lessons in the lagoon, it was time to take a boat out to a reef and put what I've learned to the test. Last comment 04/19/22.

Before each dive, Abdulla would tell us the basic layout of the reef, what to look out for, what the schedule was, and anything else we needed to know. Last comment 04/19/22.
