Day 2 Dive 2:
Final Dive for OW Cert.
Back roll dive. Mask strap rolled over the top of my head during entry, required mask recovery.
Most of the dive hovered around the 40-45ft depth, deepest was 63. Lots of fish, several sharks. Nurse sharks, Black Tip, Caribbean Reef and Bull sharks. Visited by Hawksbill turtle passing by.

Reached return point at ~480PSI and started final skill-check of Buddy-breathing. Got signal, got buddy/instructor on my Octo, locked arm. Checked depth and air. In Deco, started approach to safety stop. Reached stop point, after about 2.5 minutes saw bull sharks circling the boat ladder. Was at about 260PSI directly beneath shark circle. Once they began to break away, Did a 3/4 inflate to breach surface quickly to make sure we got topside with enough air to float. Helluva anxiety attack for my cert dive.
