Landing on a beautiful day 3/26/2014

We departed on time on this beautiful Hawaiian day at 8:30. We went out to the Corsair, getting in the water at 9:05. We enjoyed the pleasure of the Corsair and the serenity of the site surrounded by garden eels and some beautiful horned helmets. After a 20 minute dive we did a 45 minute surface interval with whales jumping and breathing all around. Where we then made our way to Fantasy reef, entering the water at 10:30 when we did a 30 minute dive, seeing a magnificent white tip reef shark about 8 feet long. After the dive we started making our way in with high spirits about our wonderful day of diving in Maunalua bay.
