Because our resort sat right on a beautiful private lagoon, we enjoyed plenty of family quality time taking beach walks, SUPing, snorkeling, and swimming in the warm waves too!
Ko'Olina is actually known for its 4 separate lagoons right next to each other. Some have resorts on them, like the Aulani, some do not. After exploring the snorkeling at the Aulani Lagoon, which was pretty good, we decided to walk to the other, less-crowded and more reefy, lagoons to check them out too and they were GREAT! We saw sea turtles 5 times of the 7 we went out snorkeling!
How cute is Dave swimming around holding hands with Mom?
Some of the sea turtles were super friendly! This one swam RIGHT UP to Kyle! We were screaming in our snorkels as we watched!
The underwater camera proving to be a fun investment again as I tried to photograph some of the different fish we saw. Not pictured here is possibly the coolest thing we ever seen underwater-- an OCTOPUS!! It was super camouflaged and zoomed around quickly, so no picture, but a forever memory!
Besides family, obviously, those salty, turquoise lagoons, with their gentle rocking waves and underwaters teeming with astonishing wildlife, will be what I miss most about Oahu!

Snorkeling was such a fun adventure. It was so sweet of Dave to hold my hand and point our the many fish that we saw. It is amazing to see all of the shapes and colors of the variety of fish that God created. I missed the turtle and the octopus, but that may have been a little too exciting for me!
Love, Mom
