The Fab Four of Maunalua Bay! 6/16/2017
Another beautiful day out on Maunalua Bay. Blue skies, a light wind, and fantastic water greeted our 4 divers as we departed the dock on the Sea Fox. Anita, Brandon, Ben, and Tim had the boat all to themselves and we decided to drop on our first deep site: the LCU.
As we descended down the lines we were met with a slight westerly current. Reaching the top of the ship (at 70 Ft) we observed a Green Hawaiian Sea Turtle resting peacefully and a Spotted Eagle Ray gliding effortlessly on the southern edge of the ship. After dropping down to the ocean floor (at 90 Ft) we began looking under the various Z blocks and tubes until we found a juvenile White tip Reef Shark. Very cool.
After an adequate surface interval it was time to drift Fantasy Reef. Dropping off the Sea Fox using a negative entry the 4 adventurers descended to 50 Ft and our first find: 2 pregnant White Tip Reef Sharks relaxing under an overhang. Next stop: a large Frog Fish and a few Great Barracuda hunting amongst the coral formations. Finally what dive around Fantasy Reef would be complete without running into our resident Turtles again.
A great day out in the bay with our divers who all dove responsibly, safely, and made my day just as enjoyable as theirs. Mahalo and ALOHA
