Aloha,

Thanks for choosing to dive with Island Divers Hawai’i.  We had a fantastic afternoon for diving.  The Sea Fox was getting some much needed TLC which means we got to sprawl out on the Barge.  James, Dina, Liam, and Matt joined us for an easy afternoon of dives.  Cammie, the dive doggie, also joined us for a lazy day of sunning with Capt. Neal and Parker.  She is practicing her service puppy skills and keeping our divers nice and relaxed prior to diving.  😉  We decided to be adventurous and headed to Angler’s Reef for dive one.  We were in search of good viz, limited current, and cool sea critters.  Angler’s reef turned out to be just the spot!  We hit a max depth of 47′ for a :43 total bottom time.  Honestly, after today’s dive this place should be called “Eel Alley!” We saw: giant, snow flake, green, zebra, pencil, and vyper moray eels!!!! It was an eel extravaganza!  After that playing with the eels, we cruised over to Koko Craters to find some turtles.  There was current today (so unusual!!!), but with it came “fish bowl” like visibility.  It was a beautiful late afternoon dive for our team.  We saw two turtles on the surface and then underwater we found cone shells, various species of eels (I’m thinking the eels are my underwater animal), tons of damsels and HI sergeant fish, and cushion starfish! As I said before, it was a great afternoon to dive.  Thanks again, James, Dina, Liam, and Matt for choosing to dive with IDH.  It was our pleasure to show you the underwater world of Hawai’i.  Until next time, dive easy!

Aloha

Amy
