More about the SunLight on Water Boat Trip
Roland and I have led three TTouch groups each year for the
past 10 years on the boat Sunlight On Water with Captain China. Captain China is Hawaiian and begins the trip with a Hawaiian prayer honoring the four directions. The focus is swimming with wild dolphins and he puts us in the water at least three times.
For non-snorkelers Roland is offering snorkeling lessons at our pool before the excursion so you will be comfortable in the water. On the boat is a person trained to help inexperienced snorkelers. Pool noodles and life jackets are available and recommended for less experienced snorkelers.
Whale-watching is also on the agenda and we have had many phenomenal encounters. Two years ago Roland was on national TV standing on the prow of the boat with his hand within a foot of a whale who stood on her head with her tail almost touching Roland's hand. This whale, known as Juanita to Captain China, had been entertaining us for 10 minutes, swimming back and forth under the boat and connecting with us. This is a very comfortable boat with easy in/out access to the water.
The trip is from 8:00am until noon. We meet at 7:30am to fit fins and masks.
Shortie wetsuits are available on request and we need to call in the sizes the night before. There is no charge for equipment. They also provide canned juice and tea, coffee, muffins, oranges and pineapple chunks, and chips.
