CHANDELIER CAVE
April 20 - Dive No. 46 Max Depth: 40' - Dive Time: 20min
Log: First cave dive! Surfaced in caves to find beautiful stalactites. The entrance of the cave is approx 10m down. It was pitch black, and water was very clear (except for at the entrance). Silvia, Lynne, Kenny and I took our equipment off and went caving through a little entrance in the last cave. Obese divers need not apply -- the entrance was pretty narrow. Really neat!
On the airplane on the way to Austin (visiting Dan
after returning to San Francisco), I happened to open up May 2001's "Sport
Diver" magazine, which had a spread on Palau. A couple apparently was recently
married in Chandelier Cave (in scuba gear!). Crazy.
