Ile des Pins New Caledonia

To conclude this series of posts dedicated to scuba diving, here are some pictures taken during my last dive Poindimié, conducted at night!

But it's also a chance to surprise diurnal animals who allow themselves much more easily approached in their sleep, such as parrotfish, which surround the night in a cocoon of saliva for isolating odors that they are so sensitive, clown fish, which bury themselves deep in their anemone to sleep, or even turtles (we had a chance to see a huge during this dive!).
