After a full day on a 42′ boat I’m a little wobbly. Ugh. Regardless of that fact, today was a fantastic boat tour. Wow. The day began at 9:30am as we pushed off shore at Port Allen on the HoloHolo Charters 42′ monohul “Northwind”. Right off the bat we saw a huge pod of spinner [...]
Drove out to Ke’e Beach early this morning arriving at the parking lot nearing 8:15am. The surf was rough today with surfers out beyond the reef hitting up the waves. The high surf made snorkeling not so great but I was still able to get some good shots in today of more common reef fish. [...]

Watched a spinner dolphin out at Glass Beach jump out of the water several times, hopefully I was able [...]
