Dives were especially cool today


Picture by instructor Larry Hogan this morning off the Sea Fox, dive report on the website if you are interested, but this picture says it all. Enjoy.

We were fortunate enough to have a monk seal encounter at Shark Cove in Lahaina several years ago. The seal was very curious and seemed quite friendly. (I don't speak seal, but rolling over on your back and presenting your tummy is not usually aggressive behavior in any animal I know.) He followed us around for more than ten minutes. It was an amazing experience.
