Diving at the Andaman Islands

Melissa and I spent 4 days diving at Havelock, one of the Andaman Islands, a group of islands in between India and Thailand (though much closer to Thailand and Burma). The Andamans are very prestine, beautiful islands with white coral sand beaches and cristal clear water. The diving was fabulous, every day we made two dives, up to 30 meters deep. We saw a lot of fish (Baracudas, Lion fish, Sweetlips, Tuna, Clown fish, Napoleon Wrasse, Giant Garupa, and many many more) and turtles. The resort was a quiet and gentle place next to the beach, and the diving school is right at the resort. We were lucky with the weather, though it rained sometimes, all days were nice sometimes with abundant sunshine.
