Big Golden Grouper

Golden Grouper Sunday!

You never know what will come by the deep camera about 45’ under the ocean surface so put it on one of your SmartTV or second monitor, or just take a look on your smart phone! Enjoy this beautiful HUGE grouper that was hanging out by the Explore.org shark camera underneath the Frying Pan Tower a few weeks back!

It’s a gorgeous one that also gets the attention of one of our belly sand tiger sharks! If you volunteer or come as an Ecotourist, you too might be able to swim or scuba down to wave hello!
