2016-07-07 - Hawaii, Oahu, Sea Tiger Shipwreck / Pacific Ocean, Hawaii, United States
30.5m - 33 min - Dived with Instructor Marco “100%” Dickson from Waikiki Diving Center
"The Sea Tiger is located about a quarter mile south of Kewalo Basin. Max depth is 130 feet but usually limited to 100 feet. In 1992 ninety three Illegal Chinese immigrants were discovered aboard this 168-foot ship, which was known as Yun Fong Seong No. 303. Its 5-crew member’s where sent to prison and the boat was seized. In 1994 it was sold to a Vietnamese fisherman who renamed it the Sea Tiger. After the coast guard repeatedly fined the fisherman he shortly abandoned it in Honolulu Harbor. Voyager Submarines bought the Sea Tiger for $1 and sank it in 1999. It is our deepest recreational wreck on Oahu. However it is very close to shore and is usually in very calm water making this a great dive year around." **Taken from the Waikiki Dive Centre website.
2016-07-07 - Hawaii, Oahu, Koko Craters / Pacific Ocean, Hawaii, United States
12.2m - 45 min - Dived with Marco from Waikiki Diving Center
"Koko Crater is a great place for certified divers and beginners! It has a depth limit of forty feet. Koko Craters is a series of underwater craters formed when Koko Head erupted. This is a cleaning Station for the Hawaii Green Sea Turtle. Some say it’s the turtle capital of the world. Koko Craters is Capt Chris’s Favorite shallow dive sight because he has seen everything come by one time or another from humpback whales to Monk Seals. He says there’s nothing like showing a first time diver a whale, dolphin or a monk seal. Excellent beginner to novice scuba diving site, 30′-40′ sand bottom with several craters. Several resident green sea turtles rest here. Schools of soldierfish and friendly, large puffers." Copied from the Waikiki Dive Centre.
