Why We Dive! Jan 7

Perfection: (noun) something that cannot be improved : something that is perfect… its why we dive here in Oahu… for days like today! All the conditions were perfect: from a great group of divers (Diana, James, Joe, Nikoli, Nicolas, Sebastion, Timothy, William, and Jamie), to the conditions (small current, GRREAT visibility), to sea life… couldn’t ask for anything better than what we had today.

First stop… LCU. Down the lines our divers went and under the wreck site. Reef fish of all kinds swam amongst the concrete blocks, as the group made its way under the craft…

there swimming slowly was a lone 7ft White tip… what a beauty! As we made our way around the site Jamie pointed out a large Scorpion fish bouncing on the bottom… and then coming into view…

an awesome group of 7 Spotted Eagle Rays flying in formation buzzed the group! Soon it was time to surface. Next on the agenda…  A drift of Fantasy Reef.

A parachute jump onto the reef and off in search of sea life… and so much there was! Threadfin Butterflies, Yellow Tangs, Trumpets, Moorish Idols, Goat fish, Yellow Margin Morays, Snowflake Eels, and an Octopus darted about the reef… and of course…

Turtles! and boy they were definitely curious about our group! Seemed like they were wondering what we were looking at and wanted to see it too! Especially at our safety stop when a juvenile turtle swam all the way up to 15 feet, circled the group once, then swam back down to the reef. That was cool.

It was PERFECTION in every sense of the word… and thank you to all our divers for a SAFE and FUN day of diving… it was a pleasure!
