REEF is excited to have rescheduled our British Virgin Islands Field Survey after postponing this trip in 2017. Join us in the BVI for a stellar Caribbean diving experience aboard the Cuan Law, the largest trimaran in the world! The British Virgin Islands have more than 100 spectacular dive sites to explore, including coral gardens, pinnacles, and wrecks teeming with fish. Blackbar soliderfish, glassy sweepers and eagle rays await divers in the clear, calm waters surrounding the Islands.
Just in time for Halloween, this Fishinar will cover some of the sneaky fish who like to disguise themselves as other species, with a focus on fishes found in the Tropical Pacific.
Your time zone may vary - this is a live, online session that starts at 8pm Eastern time.
Join Ellie Splain, REEF's Education Program Manager, as she goes over some of the species (and lots of juveniles) that you will find diving and snorkeling in the seagrass and mangroves in the Tropical Western Atlantic.
