We did an exploratory trip to the Hakai Pass area; most of the dives were very good. We were buzzed by a huge steller sea lion at about 60 feet, cool! Browning Wall was the most spectacular area as always with incredible red, purple and hot pink soft corals and of course the Irish Lords, decorator crabs, warbonnets, grunt sculpins. The 6 wolf eels at Dillon Rock are amazing. Many huge octos were out playing. The dive off Nakwato Island with the 20 knot current, to see the longnecked goose barnacles, is always great. This is truly some of the best diving in the world. Mike and Mary Ann Lever have one of the best liveaboard operations I've been on. Mike's dive briefings and knowledge of the dive sites is the best. The boat is very comfortable and accomodating. I have to mention Jud and Carrie as two of my favorite all time crew members. |
