Kailua Bay Scootering

Peter T and I did a great scooter dive yesterday in Kailua Bay, right in the heart of Kona Town. This site is often overlooked as it starts super shallow and doesn’t have perfect vis; however, this reef is super nice once you get away from the pier, which usually requires a bit of a swim. Scooters solve this problem; they take you to reef that is very infrequently visited by divers and has great vis. Great deep and shallow topography and we had ALL THE FISH! Here some raw screen grabs to “wet” your appetite!
