'Tis the season...

Along with diving, we sometimes have close encounters with Humpback Whales, Megaptera novaeangliae. It  means "Big wings of New England." Here are a couple of pictures taken while coming back from one of our trips to Molokini. Please click here for more info on our whales. Whale season is from November to April.

Team Snuba with Snuba Instructor Jenny!

 What a fantabulous day to SNUBA with Jim, Gayla, Dhalia, Dan & Jody in Molokini Crater and Turtle Town! Even with a tentative Gayla and Jody, they turn out to be a complete natural in the water. Jim and Dan had no fear in the water either. 

And with fish for parents, my little Dhalia was amazing underwater. She might be the next Sylvia Earle! Watch out! I think the next step for all is to get SCUBA certified! 

Squid and the Driessen family.

This squid was checking out our prop. We dropped an underwater camera into the water and started shooting before it swam away. It's the first squid sighting in Molokin for all of usi!!  Exciting. Our co-worker's family was onboard too! Of course they tried SCUBA for the first time. Do you think they liked it judging by the photos? 

Instructor Jenny does a quick briefing about the effects of scuba diving on your body as the Driessen family listens attentively. They are such good students! 

This is Papa Driessen doing the skills on the line at Turtle Town. 

Rebecca is rocking out the Partial Mask Clear skill as I have a secure hold on to her. 

Good Morning Ma'alaea Harbor!

As blurry eyed and caffeine deprived guests sign their waivers in the dark, they are greeted with a beautiful sunrise over Haleakala.  The sky is on F-I-R-E.


What a great way to start the day. Trilogy Excursions has early charters to Molokini Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays with SCUBA and SNUBA upgrades options available to guests. This is out of Ma'alaea Harbor.
