Animals are not itinerary items

We brief wildlife the way we brief gas - with distance, patience, and a plan if the ocean declines to perform.

Field habits

What shows up in Egyptian blue

Anthias curtains on healthy walls. Napoleon wrasse that have learned boat schedules. Turtles in seagrass that will leave if you chase. Occasional dolphin passes that belong to them, not to your camera roll.

Pelagic weeks on the Brothers and Daedalus can mean sharks and tunas - or long blue emptiness. Kass A does not invent guarantees. We invent good briefings.

Species notes

Green & hawksbill turtles

Common on southern grass flats. Approach from the side, stay low in the water column, and let them choose the distance.

Anthias & glassfish

The living weather of a wall. Buoyancy mistakes show up as fin scars - keep mid-water and the reef stays loud with color.

Pelagics

Hammerheads, thresher rumors, tuna streaks. Blue water means look out, look up, and do not abandon your buddy for a silhouette.
