Catamaran Sea Turtle Tour

Of all the activities we planned to do on vacation, the most exciting to me was seeing the sea turtles. Everyone with the tour company was very excited for us to get to go out on the new boat. I haven't seen the old boat to compare, but this was super nice. 

We were the first group to be brought out, so we got lots of time to look around and find good spots to hang out. 

The day was gorgeous and sunny, and of course the only day I ended up with a bit of sunburn. I was reapplying sunscreen every 20 minutes, and Ben just used some at the beginning of the day. But he just doesn't burn easily. 

This was the best swimming of the entire trip. We were really in a great spot. We saw another ship that had a slide off of it, and it looked like those people were having lots of fun too. I'd like to try that. 

Ben was diving off the side of the boat, and there were some very impressed ladies. They asked me if he dives professionally ???

He actually hurt his hand pretty badly by diving into a cable. But it did look impressive watching from above. 

We saw for the 5th time the golf course where Tiger Woods got married. But this time we saw it from the water instead of the road. I can't recall the name, but everyone in Barbados knows all about it. 

Snorkeling with the turtles was obviously the highlight. I could have stayed out there all day. They are so fun to swim with. 

But kind of hard to take pictures of. They sneak right up on ya and then sneak away. 

I enjoyed trying to follow them as far as I could before I'd lose them. 

A couple times Ben saw a turtle swimming right next to me that I hadn't even noticed. 

I decided I needed to touch some turtles, so I went on the hunt. They're pretty good at diving when I least expect it. 

I did eventually get my hands on a few of them. I tried to dive for one of them, but my dumb waist belt pulled me back up. I didn't like it, and didn't wear it again after that. I am happy that I got to swim with and touch sea turtles. It's one of my favorite things ever. 

We also swam with lots of fish. I actually ended up swimming out away because they were all over me, and I didn't like that. 

When can I go back?
