Today, the first dive took us down to the Navy F4u Corsair (106ft). Our only natural wreck, the Corsair was ditched by its pilot during a training mission during WW2. Today it sits on a bed of sand and garden eels. Everyone thought this was wholly appropriate due to a couple of navy pilots that joined us during their shore leave because, History!

The second dive of the day was our drift dive at Fantasy Reef (55ft). It was turtle heaven today with a count of close to 10 Hawaiian Green Sea turtles all the little nooks and crannies. Along with the turtle we had sum up close encounters with Yellow Margin eels, Crown of Thorns, and Triton’s Trumpets.
