BIG OLD HAMMERHEAD !! 12 August

we had an awesome visitor on our 2nd dive at Sea Cave today!  due to the calm surface conditions we decided to head around the corner for a couple of drift dives off of the wall.  Our first dive was at Palea Point, right outside of Hanauma Bay.  it was fantastic, with its dramatic underwater cliffs, walls, and caves.  tons of fish, and a huge turtle.  2nd jump was  Sea Cave, and the surface was still pretty calm.  So i was pretty surprised when entering the cave we found it full of surge and whitewater.  so we turned around and headed out on the wall towards Hanauma.  again, lots of fish, and big turtles and morays.  lots of plankton in the water, so viz was down.  and then towards the end of the dive i was astonished to see a 10 Hammerhead shark cruise between us and the wall, !  i can still see that big scything tail disappearing into the murky sunlight above.  great dives today at great locations!  thanks to all for safe diving!  Larry, manolo, joe
