BOAT DESCRIPTION:

The ‘Lani Kai’ ( "Heavenly Seas") is Red Sail Sports’ 38-foot Delta dive boat, designed in the United States for operation in the Pacific. The boat, which comfortably accommodates up to 18, was designed with a diver’s needs and comfort in mind. It’s equipped with a spacious dive platform, restroom facilities, fresh water showers and fresh water rinse buckets.

DIVE SITES:

Waiulua Bay

This site is great for lobster hunting and shell sightings. You can make a deep dive here or stay at a more shallow depth of 35’ on top of the submerged lava flow. It’s not unusual to see spotted eagle rays or an occasional giant manta ray here, as well as hundreds of colorful Hawaiian reef fish.

Keawaiki Point

Upon approaching Keawaiki Point, you’re reminded of an oasis in what seems to be a desert of lava. The dive consists of a wide coral reef in a depth of 15’. At the south end of the reef, the bottom drops off to about 70’ into a canyon covered by a variety of corals.

Ruddles

The unique facet of this dive site is the height of the submerged lava flow. Swimming north out of the crevices, you’ll find vertical walls of lava reaching to within three feet of the surface from a depth of 45’. The lava flow forms a series of crevices and lava tubes that are home to reef sea turtles.
