Sunset Serenade 18 March 2014

Last night was a wonderful evening for a night dive off the southeast side of Oahu. We headed out before sunset to do a dive on the Corsair and had great viz and a light current as we headed down the line. The were fish all about the wreck with schools of butterflyfish and goatfish swimming about and and damsel fish near by. We had whales singing the entire dive at times so loud we were expecting to see one but sadly they didn’t swim by.

For the night dive we decided on Turtle Canyons which has great macro life on it. There were eels all over the reef including undulated and yellowheaded moreys. There were also reef fish hiding out in the coral for the night and squirrelfish swimming about the reef. We found a couple spanish dancers as well as a large sponge crab and even a night octopus.
