Swimming With Hawaiian Monk Seals…

349

goo morning. 5:15am aloha friday. the waves should be good all over the island today. south swell, east swell, north swell, and west swell. light winds and clear skies. everybody go surf!!! see ya…
**did you know that hawaiian monk seals are on the endangered species list? there are only 1,200 in the world and only about a hundred in the hawaiian islands. i didn’t realize how few are left. so the other day when i seen a pair swimming by, i guess i was lucky. i wonder where the other 98 were? i’ve swam with them before but if you wondered how they swim under water, check this out. it’s almost the same like swimming with dolphins… freaking cool…..
and if you want to see a hawaiian monk seal in person, head over to kailua beach because there’s one on the beach right now. it’s been there for the past 2 weeks… check him out cruzing. and if you go there to see the monk seal, please don’t bother it. and please don’t take your dog. let him just hang out because one day, you might not be able to see these guys anymore…. enjoy…
