Landing Craft Utility Wreck with Barracudas in the Deep and White Tips Underneath! Feb 12

/in , /by

A glorious day out in Maunaloa Bay today… calm winds, calm seas, and calm divers made for a fantastic day aboard the Enzo. A great group comprised of Dominique (Tahiti), HSU DMcs Bill, Jason, Chris, TM Eric, and from IDH Max and Capt Joe. Our first stop was LCU where there is always great things to see…

 

A barracuda gracefully cruised the top (or bottom) of the wreck, keeping vigilance over the area like a junk yard dog!

Once we entered the bottom of the wreck we were greeted by 2 White Tip Sharks sleeping in the darkness until we interrupted their slumber and they began to swim in their usual patterns…

And outside the ship a flock of Spotted Eagle Rays flew in formation…

Awesome!

On our way to our next dive site we were met by several Humpback Whales, and then escorted by a pod of Spinner Dolphins who totally had Dominique speechless!

Next it was on to Spitting Caves for a drift of the wall… again a slight current made for great conditions and a slow, relaxing drift…

Again life abundant consisting of Turtles, Eels, Scorpion Fish, and Reef Fish of all types and colors… It rocked!

Thank you to all our divers for a safe, fun, and memorable dive! Aloha!
