The winds remained very light and I sailed from Île Tintamarre to Île Fourchue with full sails at a comfortable 4-5 knots in near-perfect conditions. The anchorage at Île Fourchue had all the mooring balls taken and I was thinking of anchoring (which other boats were doing, but which I thought was not allowed) when one of the moored charter boats dropped lines and departed. I set up my diving gear and dinghied over to one little mooring ball and was very pleasantly surprised that the conditions were just about perfect for diving - 30-50 feet of depth with steep rock drop-offs to a sandy bottom where I could photograph all sorts of flora and fauna.
I did two dives, the second one with the wetsuit on so I could lay in the sand and take pictures. I saw turtles and eagle rays, but both were moving away from me and there was no chance at getting a picture (I do have two pictures to prove I saw them, but the quality was so poor that I won't post them). After the dives I cleaned up and made dinner aboard, intending on doing some tasks and chores but somehow I ran out of both time and energy and ended up doing nothing at all.

[17°57'26.5"N 62°54'45.19"W (facing E)]	Calm waters and no wind made this a wonderful stop this day, normally the wind is funneled through the rocks and makes it great for wind-generators, even at night.

I didn't understand why this Great Barracuda was just hovering next to the reef until I looked at the picture and saw the cleaning Goby doing its job.

Wrasse by the fan coral [17°57'23.04"N 62°54'36.61"W ]	This big Great Barracuda swum around me twice then went off into the distance, later I notice him hovering in the water far above me. Perhaps it was just curious... or hungry.

Pair of Banded Butterflyfish [17°57'23.04"N 62°54'36.61"W ]	This was the first time that I'd see a Moray eel completely out of its hole and it was moving around the rocks quite a bit.
