go snorkeling in the ocean

Another world under the surface!
I have done this in Cornwall, UK where I live and it is amzing, I can’t even think how great it would be a in a foreign country with all the exotic fish.
I do it most weekends at the minute.

... is where we started. My husband and I and our 3 little girls. Two got too tired or scared, or whatever, and went back to shore, but the middle one stuck it out.

We saw a giant sea turtle and followed him for a while, until all of a sudden, he disappeared. We looked up and found that we were about a mile out to sea!

Do you have any idea how deep the water is around the atolls of Hawaii???!!! Scary-deep!

It took us what seemed like all day to get back to shore, and we couldn’t find the pass we went through when we left the Bay, so we got very scuffed up on the rocks.

It was a memorable vacation experience like none other. We will do it again some time. Probably near Laie next time, though.

So FUN!

I don’t reccomend doing this off the coast of Cali- seeing as you can barely see your toes… but in tropical waters- it is the best experience. Beautiful fish in warm salty water =complete bliss

I went snorkeling in Hawaii on my honeymoon – and saw two sharks! A little scarey but definitely worth doing! :)

I got to do this in Jamaica a couple years back, and it was amazing. I swam 5 feet above two 12’ manta rays for about 10 minutes before they took off. It was one of the most amazing experiences in my life.

When I was 10 – At one of the Gili Islands, about an hour away with one of those little boats from Lombok, Indonesia.

It was very, very beautiful and I was very, very scared. :D I was in fact too scared to leave the men (we were about 200m away from the beach) and swim back by myself, because I am terrified of sharks/ jelly fish and imagine them everywhere. So I paddled around for an hour and waited till they went back with me. My Dad patted me on the shoulder and said: “I am proud of you, you stayed ALL the time with us, like a grown up.” I nodded in silence and just decided to take the compliment. :)

three words for you….Hanauma Bay, Oahu, Hi…..the fish eat right out of your hands…

or, Miami, FL…they wrecked an airplane to create a beautiful, man-made reef…it is awesome

or Novia Scotia…cold, but so worth it, to see the lobsters…

can we say humahumanukanukauapua’a’a’?

My wife and I were there doing relief work and made sure we did this on our one day off. A neat rasta guy named “Cool Bob” was the boat captain, we went out for an hour. I saw an octopus and it squirted ink! It was really cool.
