Just in time for many weekenders, the snorkelling beach is open again.
Since we had to do a lot of driving on Saturday to Kapa'a, it was good to relax in the morning. The low tide mark was supposed to be around 1:50pm so we thought to wait till after that to go snorkelling. Pool in the morning. Not enough interest.
Adrienne had a snorkel mask repair which allowed her to go with us into the ocean. It seems Adrienne and Jean and I were out for about one hour in the water at Kahaluu. There was certainly lots of fishes to see once again. I enjoyed particularly the coral gardens further away from shore. Some of the areas I call coral canyons because the walls of coral are interesting to glide in and through them. Many first timers or newbies step on the coral. It is a wonder that so much coral is left.
The pool is once again an afternoon favourite. Right after Kahaluu the girls go right into the pool for at least another 60 minutes. I go for half that much. It is very relaxing nonetheless.
Dinner at Splashers Restaurant. For Kim and I it is round three. For Adrienne and Jean it is the second go round. Adrienne has the Captain's Table consisting of all my favourites: crab cakes, shrimps and battered fish. I have the blackened Mahi Mahi on a bed of delicious vegies. The two cakes on the plate must be vegie cakes but inspired by seafood crab cakes. Again a very good kitichen makes for a pleasurable meal. It is easy to be a foodie with dishes like they produce.
Below is very early Sunday morning snorkelers who cannot wait to get in the water. The beach was closed for 5 days and maybe they have to go back home today or tomorrow.
Rush hour early at Keahou Bay. The earliest boats that do go out to Captain Cook Memorial are the zodiacs. The regular catamaran tour boats leave at 8:30am and 8:45am. The Zodiacs can leave as early as 8am.........
