One day we spent on the Fair Wind.
It's a large catamaran that sails out to
Kealakekua Bay for snorkeling.

We sailed out from Keauhou Marina early one
morning. It was a bit overcast, but a nice day.

We arrived at the bay to crystal clear water and
lots of fish!! It was so much fun, I stayed in the water
all day, except for a short break to gobble
down the great burgers they made us for lunch,
even though I was chilled to the bone!

Here are a few shots of our underwater friends.
Due to the overcast condition, pictures are 
not very clear, believe me, the view is
much, much better in person.

Kealakekua Bay is a marine preserve, and there is
also the historical aspect. This is the place where the 
first white men (Capt. James Cook and his crew)
first landed in Hawaii, and coincidentally,
where Capt. Cook was killed by the Hawaiians
after he and his men took advantage of their
hospitality for much too long.
This is the monument to his landing.
