Oh, hello there. Look at this handsome young man!

Attached are some pretty OK pictures that I took while Scuba Diving with Maui Dreams Dive Co. in Maui. Most of the fish shots were taken while diving at Molokini Crater for the first dive. The second dive was at a "turtle spot" in McKenna Bay.

The diving in Maui isn't the best as much of the reef is damaged, but the dives are fun and I consider them good practice. I've taken basically the exact same dives with this Kihei based company, and they do a nice job if you're looking for a really easy dive. They do all your gear set-up however, which I feel that I should be forced to do, so that I won't forget how to do it. They also book the Maui Diamond II (which leaves from Ma'alaea Harbor) pretty full with certified and uncertified divers as well as snorkelers, something to know before you book...

The real stars here, however, are the endangered Green Sea Turtles.

(An ass-load of pictures after the jump...)

great pics, diver bob.

Aloha diver Bob!! Thanks for posting on our FB site and thanks for diving with us. Could we have done anything different/better during your trip with us? Also, what kind of camera are you using for your photos? We would be happy to offer you photo tips if you'd like :-)
Aloha,
Rachel

Hey Rachel. The only thing I'd say is that you should force the certified divers to setup their own gear — since I can't dive too often, I'm rusty when it comes to setup.

Also, sure, I lover photo tips. Thanks, B.
