One of the healthiest reefs I’ve seen on this island. Coincidentally a place with very few humans. 🤔

When I first fell in love with the ocean I knew very little about it, I just knew I was mesmerized by all I saw and experienced. I learned more about how the ocean is vital to our daily lives and how poorly she and her inhabitants are treated by us humans. I wanted to share images of her beauty and inspire people to see for themselves how incredible our oceans are.

But what I realized is that many people don’t have the same respect, many are looking to go from one experience to the next, without taking the proper time to learn and care about the ocean. I’ve seen reef damaged by divers, boat anchors, and fisherman. All people that are directly a part of the ocean, people who should be caring for it the most. In this photo, I am happy to see parts of reefs actually growing stronger. After diving in Hawaii many years I have noticed the places with most human contact are also the places with the most damage. This is no coincidence. I used to think that places like sea world and aquariums were not necessary and immoral, but I think for most humans it’s best if they don’t interact with some of these beautiful and wild places unless they understand how to truly care and respect it.

We are all humans learning and hopefully trying to do our best. There are so many little things you can do everyday to help care for and protect our oceans. Reef safe sunscreens, no single use plastics, reduce your carbon footprint, Beach cleanups, vote for those that care for the ocean, further educate yourself and help inform others, Eat sustainable seafood, or none at all.
We got this! Malama ke Kai

When my grandfather was asked what he wanted to eat, occasionally he would say “elephant eyebrows on toast”. I never understood what he meant haha, it was one of the many wild sayings he had. I finally looked it up, I guess it was kinda like the “bees knees”, so yea, now we know.
