bcurran2003 Posted April 27, 2004 #1 Share Posted April 27, 2004 was in st thomas off the serenade 4/18 . did an afternoon dive thru the ship (they go thru underwater safaris- good operator) only four of us on the dive boat with two dive masters. our dive master ryan led us on a great dive and we were visited by a spotted eagle ray with about a 10 foot tail that circled the area about seven times. what a sight... ryan said in over a 1000 dives he never saw them circle like that normally very skittish 2001 voyager, 2003 adventurer, 2004 granduer until we sail the serenade [img]http://escati.linkopp.net/cgi-bin/countdown.cgi?trgb=000000&srgb=00ff00&prgb=111111&cdt=2004;04;17;22;00;00&timezone=GMT-0500[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsterjohn Posted April 27, 2004 #2 Share Posted April 27, 2004 I dove in Roatan a few weeks ago. 1 large Ray swam along with us ( about 50' away) for a good 5-10 min before swimming off for a while. It ended up comming back again about 30 min later during our 2nd tank. My dm said that Rays are rare in the area, I must be lucky because I have seen at least 1 every time I dove or snorkled in the past 2 years except for in Cancun.

CruiseDiver Posted April 29, 2004 #3 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Was in St Thomas with Underwater Safaris on 4/2 with about 18 divers on board. Great dive operator. Saw spotted eagle ray in sand pointed out by divemaster Mike Riley. After we all gathered around, eagle ray lifted from the sand, shook of the sand, and gracefully flew(swam) away. Mike wondered why I didn't take a picture with my underwater camera. I told him I had just ran out of film before the ray was spotted.

jeffinhburg Posted May 29, 2004 #5 Share Posted May 29, 2004 Is this one? I don't know if this album will open up, but it's the first two photos in the "Roatan" album. Spotted ray, HUGE tail, seen on the bottom while snorkeling in about 8-10 feet of water, about 30 yards from shore, in a grassy/sandy bottomed area.
