In general, gobies have bright colors with markings that help them to be identified. They live on the bottom of the reef feeding from smaller invertebrates such as shrimps, worms, and mollusks. However few species act as cleaners, eating parasites from the bodies, mouths, and gills of larger fishes.

Then night dive with loads of octopus, sea hares, nudibranchs, and night snorkel for the non-divers. And another snorkeling with a pod of more than 400 bottlenose dolphins!
