We entered Samana Bay in the afternoon and came to anchor off 

 Santa Barbara de Samana. About 5 p.m. we visited, with the launch, 

 the Levantado Keys. Here we gathered a few land shells and many 

 beach-loving marine mollusks, crustaceans, and other things. During 

 the evening we fished with the submarine light and gathered some 

 Beroe and ctenophores, also some small fish.
