It's my first time trying to dive in a different area in Sumilon Island. It's called Lighthouse point, since we can see the Island Lighthouse near the drop-off.

It's a dive site not many have tried due to strong currents. The area is shallow (7m depth) and most corals at the bottom were dead :( I saw less than 5 giant clams and a few big rocks where corals are attached. We had to stay at the bottom most of the time. It was indeed a tough dive but we forgot about the challenges we faced when we came near a school of Jacks. They were huge and weren't bothered by our presence so we got to observe and take photos of them.

FYI; their Japanese name is ギンガメアジ Roman equivalent: Gingame Aji.

Seems like you was lucky to such a big group of jacks! Now I miss scuba a lot :(
