Weekend Photo Dump: Makena x 4

Spotted Eagle Ray: I’m sure you’ve seen a car chase, probably a boat chase or a ski chase, but have you ever seen a Devil Scorpionfish chase? It’s a new one for me.

Kealia Pond & Ulua

It was a day for fantastic conditions. First dive at Kealia Pond, I joined a local nudibranch expert and her wife and it was amazing. They have a great eye for the tiniest sea slugs, many of which were too small for me to even try to take a picture. I am including some that […]

Keawakapu Deep

Found the deep reef in 110 feet today that I had been meaning to get to. There was a nice spot with bigger than normal fish populations for Maui these days. It was refreshing. As it was an exploratory dive, I wanted to travel light since as I had two scooters; so I only took […]
