Hawaiian Hawksbill Sea Turtle – “Bubbles”

November 10, 2017 By timmerz

So, we were diving at Hanakao’o Beach and had a Hawaiian Hawksbill Sea Turtle swim through our group. We come to discover that is a Hawksbill that hasn’t been catalogued yet. The Hawaiian Hawksbill are protected here in Hawaiian waters and research/data collected daily. We got to name this Hawksbill, so of course we chose BUBBLES !
Let us know if you see her out there … “Let’s Get Tanked..!!”

All activities meet up at the Pool Kiosk of the Ka’anapali Beach Club. The Snorkel & Dive Sites are chosen the day of the the activity from an array of choices on West Maui from Kapalua Bay to Olowalu including out first choice Honokowai Beach …weather permitting of course. Tiny Bubbles Scuba is a  “mobile” company …so if the water conditions are not “ideal” in front of the KBC, then we can travel to a different dive site.
