Swimming With Sea Turtles in Kona, Big Island of Hawaii 在大島與海龜同游


三年前才遊大島(驚艷夏威夷大島),因為熟門熟路,從西岸直飛很方便。這次決定只去幾個地方,希望好好放鬆度假。在Kailua-Kona 留了兩天,都在浮潛。我們去的兩處都在路邊,停了車就可以下水,完全免費。買了兩年的水底相機這回真的努力使用。不只見到海龜,還在水中看牠們覓食,跟了好一陣子。其他熱帶魚更不在話下。(倒是珊瑚礁沒啥看頭。)我這旱鴨照例穿救生衣浮潛,保證要沉也沉不下,可以安心地享受神奇的水中世界。以下是英文詳情。

Revisit same place in three years is something unthinkable in our travel record, but we wanted to go back to the Big Island because we knew the place from last visit, this time just wanted to do few things and relax, no exploration needed. With direct flight from Oakland to Kailua-Kona, flying time to the west is much easier than to the east. The big plus is easy access to the free snorkeling sites we intended, no need to involve boat or tour operators.
