The boat slips off Bávaro beach and the Atlantic opens like a page you can’t wait to read. Salt and diesel mix; the crew runs through gear while the shoreline refrigerators of resorts recede. On this double‑tank outing you surface twice in three hours — first to swap tanks, then to trade one reef for another — and the water pulls at you with deliberate, curious currents.
