Others have given all the important details, here are highlights of my
dives:

Dive 1: Dropping onto the top of the highest spot we could find on the
depth finder we were greeted by a Hydro coral garden that was so
spectacular we we almost didn't bother venturing any further. None of us
had ever seen such large, dense and vibrant clusters before. Just 4
minutes into the dive, under a rock out cropping along a gentle slope at
160', Beto and Susan were timidly greeted by the most immense Giant
Pacific Octopus any of us have ever seen. Think double the size of the
beautiful specimen at Monterey Bay Aquarium. After trying every trick in
his bag of camouflage tricks, he gingerly extended a tentacle to Beto &
Susan as if to say, "Well, if your going to stay here I might was well
say hello". Enchanting experience - we'll be back Greedo.

Dive 2: Towards the end of end of dive, Dave and I were exploring a 170'
deep crevice with interesting formations and discovered a large chunk of
rock that at some point in history had crumbled onto itself forming a 30
foot long narrow cavern, covered in life. We swam through single file
and popped out onto a sheer face on other side of the the pinnacle! We
weren't able to capture video or photograph this adventure so we'll
leave some things unrevealed at this point in time. In the middle of
this tunnel that we're now calling "Jedi Cave" is a surprise treasure,
"Wampa". You'll know it if and when you see it!
