Fish Bowl - This is an anchored dive. Don't be disappointed when you first start down the anchor line. It is a little barren to begin with, which makes it a good anchorage. As we cruise away from the boat you will begin to see the marine life pick up. Generally I like to cruise the bowl back towards Maui and look out over the edge where huge boulders are covered with coral and fish and octopus. Lots of nudibranchs too. As we drop down the side to about 55 feet we stop to look under the ledges here and sometimes see a white tip reef shark. At this point we generally get a slight ride on the current around the corner and back into the fish bowl. As you take this ride, keep your eyes out into the sand for cruising bruisers(Hammerheads!) and eagle rays. You just never know when they are going to show up.
