Octopus in the Camera Lens at Our Favorite Dive Site in Honolulu!

we had a blast today diving with the fantastic Hawaiin green sea turtles.  first we moored up at Baby barge, and made our way down the line to the wreck.  sure enough, right in front of us, two huge turtles chilling under the ledge in front of the wreck.  these guys can be 5 feet long, and 80 years old, and are rather regal as they occasionally glance over at us passing divers, calmly acknowledging our visit to their home.  they are beautiful to see as they climb toward the surface for their periodic breaths of air. we also saw an octopus, and several big eels.  nice!!  2nd jump was a drift of staff favorite, Fantasy reef.  i don’t think i’ve ever had a bad dive there – there is so much to see!  colorful hard coral, lava-created topography, arches, swim-throughs, and more huge turtles!!  great day for those big guys!  no octopus, but tons of reef fish, and a huge eagle ray!  thanks to all for safe diving, larry, joe, jeremy, kevin
