Scarlet Frogfishes (Antennarius Coccineus) have small fishing lures, made from modifications of their dorsal fins, which they use to attract small fishes. They remains almost motionless, for long periods at a time, moving only its lure. Once a potential target comes close enough, it lunges toward the prey, rapidly opening its jaws, and creating enough suction to swallow the prey whole. #snorkeling

We like to visit calm and secluded spots for snorkeling and beach hoping 🐡🐠🐟
Shoal of Panamic Sergeant Fish (Petaca banderita) feeding on Cortez Damselfish's eggs (Segastes rectifaenum).
Snorkeling off Flamingo is beautiful! We'll be excited to explain you about fish habits and behaviors 🐠🐟🐡🐙
Green Turtles (Chelonia mydas) can sometimes be seen during our snorkeling sessions. They can hold their breath for 45 to 60 minutes during their normal routine. However they can hold it for longer when resting, which typically lasts around 4 to 7 hours.
Brown booby (Sula leucogaster) keeps leading us to the snorkeling spots!
The Hancock's blenny (Acanthemblemaria hancocki) measures around 1.5 inches and lives in empty barnacle shells looking around and waiting to take something to their tiny tummies.
Spotted Eagle Ray (Aetobatus laticeps)
Their skin pattern is unique to each individual, just like a fingerprint.
