Fun in the Sun, and Underwater

Today was a gorgeous day out on the water in Mauna Loa Bay. The sky was clear, the winds were calm, and the water was flat! We couldn’t have asked for better conditions as we headed out to our first dive site this morning. The first dive today was at the LCU. With a max depth of 90 feet and a 30 minute dive time we had an awesome dive. we found a white tip reef shark hanging out underneath the wreck. Three spotted eagle rays were cruising around the wreck, and a few moray eels were hiding in the cement pylons surrounding the wreck. Lots of cool stuff to see down there. The second dive we did today was sea cave! Always an awesome dive site when we are able to do it! Lots of different kinds of nudibranches living inside the cave. We swam with huge schools of butterfly fish and sargent majors the whole time we drifted along the wall. Visibility was amazing, 100+ feet, and the fish were all around. After a 40 minute dive to 50 feet we headed back up to the boat to catch some final rays before hitting the dock. Overall an awesome day on the water with an awesome group of divers!
