Wow!! what a cool dive today. ok first off we headed out to the mouth of the boat channel, found a pair of pipi fish in a puka under the large boulder, swam out a bit into the blue and encountered a pod of spinner dolphins for what seemed like forever, cruised back into shore and swam through a school of hellers barracuda and in 15 feet of water had a 12ft tiger shark swim by, in addition to all the reef fish. This dive never ceases to provide just what I wasn’t expecting.
