Frogfish Sit on the Anchor Lines and Spinner Dolphins Show Their Agility in the Pacific Ocean

/in /by

Today was fun in the sun at Island Divers HI! On the 2 tank afternoon charter  we had Discover Scuba Divers, Open Water students in training and Certified divers.

Our first dive site of choice was Koko Crater. With a maximum depth of 39 feet, we had Larry guided our group of certified’s while I lead our  OW students and intro divers. Visibility was awesome today! Right under the boat we could see turtles resting in the sand next to their underwater  statue buddies. We made our way around the crater spotting eels and schools of wrasse. Current was very light today, which made an easy swim and exploration for everyone.

The second dive site we picked was a fun reef named Turtle Canyons. Not long after being at depth an Octopus was spotted by Larry! Sitting on the mooring line not far away as also a frogfish! After exploring the reef and playing with compass skills in the sand our divers where soon back on the boat, and just in time to watch the spinner dolphin show.

Great dives with awesome people today at IDH!
