I took advantage of a random day off and joined some friends on the water today. We couldn’t have asked for a better boat day, after the morning clouds burned off it was nothing but blue skies and calm seas.

The water temperature in the Gulf has been slowly dropping as a result of our shorter days and (slightly) cooler weather. All of which means fish (and their myriad of predators) are more active. It was a live nature show full of aquatic antics – mullets jumped, dolphins splashed and dashed, Black-tipped sharks skimmed the surface, and all manner of seabirds feasted nearby.

Such a wonderfully relaxing way to spend the day!
