Nice!

I could hang out at the turtle cleaning station all day- that looked awesome.

The usual Maui diving — turtles and a shark. Good video and thanks for posting.

Turtles! I've seen more turtles from my Maui dives than all others combined probably!

If your schedule allows, definitely dive mala wharf, it's still one of my favorite dives!

Thanks, Mala is a favorite of mine as well, south swell has prevented but is calmer now and plan to hit it today

Do you subscribe to the snorkel report?

Do you subscribe to the snorkel report?

Yes I did. It doesn’t get sent until around 7:45 each morning so if you want an earlier departure have to do without

Boat dives yesterday.


By the way, mala wharf was great this morning. Knee-high surf, bit of surge but good 50+ ft viz. more turtles than I could count

UH ..... "AMEN!" Mala Wharf is such an amazing dive! The biggest challenge is remembering all the incredible critters you saw! This is a dive best done in flat to 1 ft swell unless you have some good experience under your belt (in my humble opinion) unless you have a local guide certainly. Looking from above it's hard to imagine what awaits underwater!! Turtles, eels, octopus, nudibranchs, occasional white tip reef sharks, frogfish..... the list goes on. One of the best shore dives in the islands when the conditions are right! Great post
