We were lucky to get the 15m+ yesterday out at Cook Island.

Today was a fluke with the weather report last night saying stroms were coming with 2 M of swell and lots of wind, as per usual the WEATHER PREDICTION WAS WRONG!!! lucky for us

When we arrived out at Cook Island the swell hadn’t lifted yet and the Vis Was Awesome 20m+ Today Cook really turned it on for us!! The dives were too good to be true The water was like a bath and so clear we had 8-10 turtles all hanging around out at the Turtle Sanctuary with Spotted eagle rays cruising around over our heads. Next we found some boxer shrimp, spanish dancer’s, mantis shrimp, hermit crabs in a punch up, nudi’s, Leopard sharks, clown fish, an unusual pipe fish wrapped up in the weed Too Much To List an unforgetable dive!!

Everyone had such a good time incredible the average dive time was 60 min with 60 -70 bar left considering a standard dive out at Cook normaly is around 45 min!!! Every one on the boat agreed this was the BEST DIVE AT COOK ISLAND BY FARE!!!
