Tony, top spot this time of year would be Koloa landing on the south shore. I did 2 shore dives there and saw 6 dragon morays, golden dwarf moray, and a zebra moray on the one dive. The other one a seal came in and caught and ate a scorpionfish right in front of us. There's a bright purple leaf fish there that's super cool to watch too. He's always in the same spot, so ask if you do a dive. I think he's too deep to see snorkelling though. It's a small site with tonnes of critters there. Should be able to see some cool things snorkelling. LOTS of different morays there, some fairly shallow. There are also banded angels there too. The dolfins come in close to shore there as well as the odd seal so keep an eye out for them. Also, keep an eye out for my camera that I let go on a different dive on the south end! It's a black nikon. That was back in Nov but you never know. lol I have about 400 pics of 9 dives on it....

Tony I thought they lifted the carry-on restrictions? There weren't any (many) when we went to phoenix. just the regular liquid and you can take one carry-on and a purse/camera bag etc like it was before.

That's true but still there's a LOT of stuff that needs to come along, like you have to have a car seat for the little one and stuff (yes I know some people hold their kids on laps for a flight, if you knew my kids you'd understand why this is not possible in this instance). I'm sure it will be fine but nevertheless I'll still breathe easier when it's all done.

Helicopter ride sounds like fun, but I dunno. We'll see, we promised ourselves each a kid-free excursion, and I'm sorta leaning more towards mountain biking myself but we'll see. I can't seem to find any place to rent me a Hobie Cat, unfortunately all catamaran rentals are more like the 40' variety which would be cool too but it's just not the same.

@Scott - thanks, that's just the info I was hoping for. Golden dwarf eels would be soooooo freakin' cool to see out there!!
