that should be bearable for a cold water wuss like me

Middle 70's, sounds like paradise

even thinking of shark tours

Are there shark tours? On Maui we're always bumping into them just shore diving even.

yeah i saw several shark tours in google. most of them cage though. i wanted to experience shark feeding like they have in the carribean or florida.

We did the cage thing last year. It is in the cage and they chum the water to make sure you will see lots of sharks. We enjoyed it a lot...but we both should have taken more weights with so we could stay on the bottom of the cage...and should have taken pony bottles with us.
Since this is done up on the North Shore I don't know if you'll have much fun out there in January...pretty rough out there during this time of the year.
