who doesn’t love turtles, and the bigger they are, the more we love them!  and our 2nd dive today was a drift of spectacular Fantasy Reef, home of the giant Hawaii green sea turtle.  If I was ever going to guarantee anything on a dive out here on Oahu’s south shore, it would be that “we will see huge green sea turtles at Fantasy!”  and i would always be right, because I’ve never not seen them there.  on some dives we may see up to 15, and they seem to enjoy cruising around when divers are in their neighborhood!!  it was just a fantastic dive, as we also saw a frogfish, octopus, and a whitetip shark, as well as beautiful coral and loads of reef fish!  first dive was baby barge, and we had a blast exploring the wreck and all the marine life surrounding it!  thanks to all for safe diving,  larry, captain joe
