July 1st-Anchored at the island of Tobacco Caye, Belize we got up early ready to visit the underwater world. There was a strong current in the ocean, so Kristie & David stayed in the dinghy following us as we explored. Being back in the water was pure bliss and an instant calm. The kids were all trying out their new spear guns so us girls tried to stay away from them as best as we could. #sailinglife#underwateradventures#snorkelingparadise#spearfishinglife#fishingtrip#catamaranlife#oceanexplorer#freedivinglife#bluewaterhunter#snorkeldaily#sailaway#deepseafishing#underwaterworld#reellife#spearfish#sailingadventure#tropicalwaters#fishon#oceanaddict#snorkelvibes#catchoftheday#saltlife#underthesea#fishinglifestyle#sailtheworld#spearfishinggear#coralreef#sailingfamily#scubasnorkel#oceanlife
