LCU Followed by Fantasy - May 19 - Island Divers Hawaii

Today we had a great bunch diving: Andre, Marc, and Anna. Also joining us we had a couple Island Divers Crew diving in celebration of boat crew Kelsey’s 20th birthday. This morning’s Sea Fox brought the divers out of the channel and straight over to LCU for the first dive. After making their way down to the wreck the divers explored the dive site and its surrounding areas. To my suprise, the pregnant White Tip that had been living under the LCU wasn’t around today. Clearly she must have had other plans.

After a 35 minute dive at the wreck the divers ascended and went to pick up another group of divers that would join us for the second dive. Ocean Matters is joining us this week with a group of 10 high school students who are out diving with us while learning about marine conservation and biology while on an academic trip accompanied by 7 chaperons.

After retrieving the teens the Fox sped back out to Fantasy Reef where we tied up and dropped down to the 60′ lava-field-turned-coral-reef for a 45-minute dive. The diver came across more Green Turtles than they could count while they explored the beautiful reef and swam through its swim-through’s. Excellent dive guys!!

Another great day splashing around in the Pacific. Happy Birthday Kelsey!
