Maui - Snorkel Day Two: Ka'anapali

The best snorkeling spot we found on the three Hawaiian Islands we visited was right outside our door at the Aston Mahana in Ka'anapali.  The water was clear and the fish were abundant.  It was tough getting in and out of the water because of the rocky shoreline, but with even with the scrapes, cuts, and bruises... it was still our favorite.

Here are just a few of the critters we saw there on our first day of snorkeling at this site.  As you can see, not all are named just yet.  If you have any suggestions, please comment below and I'll make the changes as they come in.  In the meantime, I will continue to research the critters (not all are fish) and give them names over time.
