Is this a Sturgeon?  How big was it?  This must have been an awesome sighting if indeed a sturgeon!!  Please tell me all about it.

Maybe we got to see more within the next days, but I heard the visibility wasn’t that good
this time…

That is amazing!  I would like to dive there just to be able to see a sturgeon.  They look very prehistoric, like a dinosaur.  Very interesting… And very large!!

The were very nice! I spent some time on the bottom
next to a group of eight sturgeons that rested in the
sand. Truly a prehistoric and very curious fish wink
