The deeper you go, the larger and more exotic the marine life. At 10 meters, where the wall begins, schools of giant tuna and jackfish make their rounds, undisturbed by the occasional diver, while meter-long lobsters scurry for cover, unaware that their immense claws are enough of a deterrence. Farther down, giant sea turtles graze on the marine foliage, and manta rays the size of tabletops pass below. At 30 meters...
