What a fantastic day for an afternoon dive! The warm sun and calm seas made for some great visibility and the divers had a an awesome afternoon on Koko Crater and Turtle Canyon.
Dive briefing
The conditions were fantastic at Koko Crater, allowing divers to enjoy some of Hawaii’s favorite sea creatures. We shared an afternoon snack time with some friendly fish over by Big Buddha and took a leisurely stroll in the main crater with some green turtles. Divers definitely got some close encounters with some of Hawaii’s favorite animals.
Sea Turtles
Afternoon snacks!
Over at Turtle Canyon, visibility and current were in our favor which allowed us to truly enjoy some of the corals that house many different species of marine animals. With such little current, divers had the chance to swim into some of the shallower parts of the reef and see different schools of fish enjoying the warm waters.
Catching some afternoon sunshine!
On the way back we all enjoyed the warm weather and the boat came back with another newly certified diver. Congratulations Sarah!
