The Atlantis Submarine Adventure
It's an Adventure, it's educational,
it's safe and it's fun Located at Lahaina
Harbor Slip #18. If you've ever seen the movie "The Hunt for Red October", you'll be fascinated to know the Atlantis Submarine Adventure will remind you of that.

We departed at Lahaina Harbor on a shuttle vessel Holokai and were transported to the Atlantis dive site. The sub arrived and we transferred very carefully on to the top of it. We were met by the crew and were asked to turn around and walk backwards down the stairs. Once we were all settled in front of our port holes I couldn't but notice where the captain was sitting. He was pretty much surrounded in glass and controls.

The colors were phenomenal. Beautiful and bright. As a matter of fact he mentions the color chart hanging on each port hole for our viewing. When we submerged the sea water filters each color of the sunlight. Red is the first color to break down. It will begin to look purple. The color orange is next to break down as you move into deeper water and begins to look yellow. At around 60 feet the color yellow will appear to be green. And at 90 feet green begins to look blue. Really neat to see. Lots of jokes, songs and movie references made along this journey. It is truly a fun time.

As we moved along the blue ocean floor our tour guide is pointing out several different variety's of exotic fish species. We saw Manta Rays, Peacock colored parrot fish, moray eels and candy striped squirrel fish just to name a few. There is also a fish chart there for you to refer to. These guys didn't miss much. There were natural reefs, man-made reefs and the most interesting was the sunken ship the Carthaginian.
