squeeze - 7/19/2017 8:09 AM I went scuba diving here on 8/1/2016. Average viz: 71-80ft/22-24m. Water temp: 71-75°F/22-24°C. Unbelievable otherworldly experience; one of my best dives ever. I went with Neptune Charlies, and I was the only scuba diver. My kids and my elderly parents snorkeled on the surface. I would do this again in a heart beat.

HawaiianSnowman - 8/04/2013 2:50 PM I went scuba diving here on 7/28/2013. Average viz: 61-70ft/19-21m. Water temp: 76-80°F/24-27°C. Boat dive for advanced open water certification. Nice site that I have been to before. It was a nice dive for critters. Garden Eels at 58 ft on the sand bottom. There were eels about as it was starting shift toward sundown. We had a green flash sunset on this dive. A really special added bonus! Jeane, Keller, Capt Eric, and all the crew on the Kea nui from Jacks diving locker were great.
