This morning, we snorkeled again and saw many lovely fish. The current was pretty strong, but we are good swimmers, so that didn't bother us much.
Soon after getting in, we encountered quite a few keeltail needlefish (Hawaiian name: 'aha), swimming just beneath the surface. These were about 8 inches long.
A little later we encountered a bluefin trevally (Hawaiian name: 'omilu), swimming circles around a big rock. This fish was about 20 inches long. It seemed to change color, turning its blue fins and blotches a sort of electric blue color. We couldn't figure out why this fish was fixataed on the rock.
And later, Bori spotted this little nudibranch (sea slug) on the sand. This scrambled egg nudibranch was about 2 inches long.
Nice conditions and nice marine life!
