snorkeling in Maui


This is our day cruise, it was so nice. The water was amazing. Just a little cold, but the people were there with wet suits for us too.




We had breakfast and Lunch on the boat and the crew was awesome. They were always there to fill your drinks, help you around the boat when it was going and even in the water they were going around making sure that we were ok, and seeing all the fish that was there.



This is one way to get off the boat. Thats me waiting for my noodle to be given to me.

Luis is an awesome swimmer and I was to chicken to swim down to far. The water was about 55 feet deep. Luis would swim down a little and get good pictures


Just before we jumped in the waster we saw dolphins. The crew on the boat said" for every one you see there is 3 more under water. "

I really liked the yellow fish.

Can you see the fish in this picture? One of the crew members showed us this fish and we couldn't see it until he touched it and made it swim. This is a picture of what our boat looks like. Horror store, beware if you get queasy you may not want to read on ... just skip to the next picture. On the way back we had an 2 and a half hour boat ride. I was getting tired and that boat was throwing people all over the place. I thought I would be fine, but boy was I wrong. I got sick. So we moved to the bottom of the boat and I was starting to feel a little better, Luis went in the front of the boat to check it out, and I was in the middle of the boat, All of a sudden i jump up walked (because I couldn't run or I would fall) as fast as I could to the back of the boat , but I couldn't make it. I got to the side and lost it. The only problem at the side of the boat is the wind. I ended up throwing up on the 4 people sitting behind me. I felt so bad but the were nice and tried to help me out. They gave up the sits and I sat there feeling so much better all the way home. I was scared to move from my seat, because I knew I would get sick again but in the back I felt great.

This pictures where when we were just snorkeling around our room. We wanted to see turtle so bad we were asking everyone and ended up seeing and swimming with about 12 of them. IT was so cool. And they were so big, it was crazy, swimming with this turtles that are bigger then us.
It was so great we loved it all.
