Nitrox Specialty certification dive. We did a drift dive by Sea Cave today as our second dive. We were extremely surprised to see 3 Hawaiian Monk Seals (1 female, and 2 males) playing inside the Sea Cave. We stayed there with them for about 30 minutes allowing them to come down from the surface and check us out and allow us to take photos of them. Also saw Moray Eels, Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles, a large school of Hawaiian Barracuda, and several star fish along the cliffs and ledges.
