Mike And Earl run a great operation and cater to your skill level and can arrange amazing up close and personal large animal encounters. They know this area so well that they can find most things on the reef upon reguest. I saw nearly all endemic Butterfly Fish over 6 dives and they could find octopi on nearly every dive. There were lots of turtles and eels as well as eagle rays. Both men have a deep love and appreciation for the ocean and everything in it and their enthusiasm was contagious. Highly recommended to anyone on Kona looking for a great diving experience. |
