Dave Lemons and I dove Molokini Tuesday morning. High points: Large hard coral selection. Saw 2 white tip sharks (babies) about 3 feet in length. The sharks were holed up in a cave and were a little shy to show themselves. Saw 2 octopus, and the dive master played with them to a great degree. Petted a sea cucumber. Very soft. Forgot my camera on the surface. Rookie mistake. The reef fish were awesome and plentiful After doing some research, we may be able to identify them. 6 divers per instructor on the first dive. Lots of sea sickness from a few of the participants, so we had to make a shore stop during the surface interval to drop off the sick ones. Ed Robinson Dive Adventures did an EXCELLENT job. Dive Master - Ricardo Tino.
