Pa’awa glory 4/5/2014

On this bright Hawaiian day we departed the dock a half hour late at 13:00 with three open water students all ready and excited to go! We arrived at Pa’awa at 13:10 and got in the water right after tying up, and started our underwater adventure we had a slight delay and some ear trouble but over all everyone had a extremely pleasant dive. We got to see two leaf scorpion fish. After our 30 minute dive we surfaced and did a  15 minute interval heading over to Hawaii loa ridge. I hoped in to check conditions and I couldn’t see the bottom so we headed over to Anglers and drifted for another 30 minutes down the ledge. At Anglers reef we got a lot of moray eels, cushion star fish, and a giant horned helmet. All in all we had an amazing two dives this afternoon and everyone was having a blast up until arriving at the dock. Thank you all for coming out and diving with us today you made my job worth it with all your smiling faces and incredible attitudes!
