Scuba Diving the Satellite Reefs of Ulua - Part 2

What a wonderful way to celebrate Brian's birthday, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Would love to watch the eel video if you make one!
awesome vid great fun! I just got an old but new to me kayak and hope to launch at Kihei boat ramp. thanks aloha!
Your videos are so cool for me to watch!! I’m 14 and really want to do something in this field and your videos always inspire me. Thank you for all u do!
Was that a lawn chair?? Wow!
Yes it is! Unique foundation for an artificial reef, right?
Hi! Thank you for sharing your experience! I am a graduating junior student and i want to learn what i need to do ahead of time... I have a passion for the ocean and the life within it, with that i wanted to pursue marine biologist. ❤
Box Jellyfish 3:42 😱 😱 😱
I love your videos!
Beautiful Video!
This is Fantastic Jess! 🐠 🎥
Hello, where is the hole that goes down into where the volcano is?/was?
I love this spot because you can see so much at shallow depths with great sunlight and color - like those pygmy angelfish, I saw flame and potter's. Because it's so shallow I was able to do a few 90 minute dives there, and there's no need to rush to get anywhere, so I could take 5+ minutes on one wire coral goby and got some photos of it actually in focus. I also love that this spot is kind of sheltered so it's often calm even in the afternoon, with easy entry and exit. My favorite shore dive spot in the world so far.
I can’t wait to get back to snorkel there!!
The damsel fish among the urchin spines! Beautiful footage!
Stunning!
Fantastic Video!
This is such a cool job I love meteorology but i think I'd try to become an marine biologist too
What is the best time to go here and go tide pooling?
I would like to learn about eel species. My favorites are ❄️ and 🦓 morays
Wondering, how shallow do large preditors tend to come in when feeding at night?
😍😮 🌊 How is It?
Im here from rickers documentary
Hii, quick question is it possible to do a professional degree in marine science or any ocean related side? any help would be greatly appreciated
Wonderful video and great information!
Great video. Btw quick question, is there a marine biology college in Hawaii....
Great information!!
This is such a very motivational video I really enjoy hearing your side of the story of how you became a marine biologist and it’s insane and interesting to hear other people’s stories and they all have different backgrounds of how they become marine biologist themselves. For me as someone who is also trying to get into marine biology I am more looking forward to the adventures and the future I’ll see once I’ve really gone through my side of my journey to be a marine biologist not only am I excited for working with the ocean but working in a lab and discovering new things. I understand it’s not an easy way but I am here for the roller coaster of my adventures to begin. ❤🎉 🥼 👨🏻🔬
What an amazing day for a dive! Where do you rent/fill your tanks?
This is where we went the week after we met you, back in March 2020! We were spending the last 5 days of our Maui visit in Lahaina to see shows and galleries, but hearing from our friends back in Seattle what was going on with covid we dropped all those plans and spent the week doing mostly solitary outdoor activities, including two days snorkeling at Honolua Bay, which was amazing! Now I can't believe I'd been to Maui 5 times before then and never snorkeled there before. We did not try diving at Honolua - Ceila wasn't certified yet. I did do a couple of shore dives at Airport beach that week with Extended Horizons while she snorkeled there. Exciting that you saw almaco jacks and an undulated moray while snorkeling! Thanks for putting those in the video. And that pair of boxfish in the scuba portion are the most adorable thing ever! I think our most exciting find when we snorkeled at Honolua was a juvenile blackstripe coris.
Consider doing a shout out for advertisement. Those commercials are horrendous. What do you make like 50 cents a month from commercials... have videos for local businesses and plug them. There's more of a chance of me using one of your locals than me ever buying something from a commercial
Stunning! Worth doing both!!
So beautiful!!
im an environmental scientist (more on the ecologist/biologist side) and i REALLY wanna to work in marine environments. Currently specializing in wetlands but gonna volunteer at the aquarium for more marine experience (i did research on sturgeon fish and other species in uni)
I love your videos. I look forward to all the information you include. ❤
I'm not a scuba person but I LOVE snorkeling. We (three of us) snorkeled this area back in 2019 and swam all the way out the reef to where the boats drop snorkelers. I'm a good swimmer and snorkeling is my thing, but I have to admit when I noticed the drop off on both sides (as I got way out) I got a bit unnerved wondering, "what's out there looking up at me?" so I swam back and got out. Felt like the sandy bottom on either side of the peninsula reef was at least 40' foot deep. Probably a bit too far out for a snorkeler who wasn't part of a boating group. It was definitely an adventure I won't forget! Your video brought back all those wonderful memories. Thanks!
Stunning!!!!
Maaşın ne kadar lan
I did enjoy that. Thank you for a great ❤
"Hi! I'm so inspired by you 😍. I wish to have mentorship from your side. I'm dreaming of becoming a marine biologist, so I hope you can help me out. But I don't know how to reach out to you."
hey super helpful video. thank you!
So great to see you! I just asked your mom about you, and asked how you were doing. Beautiful video as always! ❤️❤️
Hii
love it! thank you for posting 😀
Jessica, GREAT to see you back. Always enjoy your videos of the Undersea World on Maui.
amazing video and will be there in September looking forward to spending as much time under water as we do on land! Aloha
Glad your back! Amazing!!!
Put a waterbin in the water you,ll catch the plastic within a mounth
Loved this video ❤
WAHHH I WENT TO MAUI OCEAN CENTER DURING MY FIRST OUT OF TWO HAWAII TRIPS WHEN I WAS 5 OR 6 AND I LOVED ITT that hawaii trip was definitely my first time falling in love with marine biologyy I found a cup we got from there a few months ago and it made me so happy and now its holding my pens on my desk wahhh this feels like such a full circle moment😭
We booked this excursion after seeing this video and it was an incredible experience! We went a week ago and were treated to seeing many whales breaching on our way to and from Molokini. If you go during whale season (November through April) you will see a lot of whales as well! Highly recommend doing this!
