Oceanic Patrol, Kawaihae

Spectacular Skorkeling adventure with Captain G! We went to a beautiful coral reef and saw lots of turtles, eagle rays, trumpeting fish, and few big eels! We even saw some octopus that were mating! Captain G always shows great respect to marine life and made sure we showed respect to the animals we saw. On our way back Captain G spotted a huge manta ray and allowed us to enter the water with it! Not only did we get to see the big manta ray but a huge ball of fish were hanging down around it, on our way back to the boat a small group of giant bottle nose dolphins came by us to say hello! We will never forget this experience with Captain G and Ocean PATROL!

Captain G is the whale king! I was able to go out whale watching with Captain G a few times this month, and wow what an incredible experience. He knew exactly where the whales were and even the other tour boats would come check us out a few times when they couldn’t find them! Patience is the key to captain Gs success, while at times we would just sit and wait while other boats were racing about we were the ones rewarded with amazing close up views! The whales would just come straight us Almost as if they recognized his boat. We would never chase or get to close but the whales would come right to us and hang around for us to get amazing photos. I even stuck my GoPro underwater to capture a group of whales! I’ll be back next season captain g! Thank you ocean patrol.
