Mermaid Reef

Stoplight parrotfish
After returning to marsh Harbor we found 2 good days to dingy to Mermaid Reef located outside Marsh Harbor on the eastern side. We went with Bill and Linda from s/v Ceili. The first day we snorkeled Jane forgot the camera but since it was cloudy it was not the best for pictures. Our second trip to the reef was a sunny day and a picture is worth a thousand words. These are some of the fish we were able to identify.
