Hi All!
I just returned from a dive trip to St Helena island. It's in the South Atlantic, but you knew that.
It was awesome! Low-key island life, tons of fish, wrecks, lava topology and swim-throughs everywhere, whale sharks, mobulas, very fun. Water temp in the high 70's F, I wore a 5mm full wetsuit with a hood. Vis was "poor" due to recent storms, only 60-70 ft on most dives.

Re: Saint Helena Island dive trip report
Sixty: Thank you so much for posting this. This triggers so many of my interests: a remote island full of history and romance, fascinating geology, whale sharks, and an animal new to me (mobula ray). My 80 year-old body ached just looking at the photo of the stairs. When I was in my sixties, I showed off by jogging up similar stairs in Puno, Peru, above Lake Titicaca.I would love to be on one of the boats anchored in that cove. Reviewers overuse the wotd "epic", but I feel it applies here. I am a fan of your adventures.
