On the eastern shore of Oahu you'll find Hanauma Bay, one of the most popular spots to snorkel in Hawaii. It's easy to access, and even in waist deep water you can see a variety of fish swimming around this active reef located only 10 miles from Waikiki Beach. Hanauma Bay is a beautiful spot, the waters are clear and calm, and as a result the crowds lining up to get in are likely to be the most challenging part of your experience. Preservation efforts around Hanauma Bay limit the number of tourists allowed in at any given time, however if you arrive early enough you shouldn't have a problem getting in. We booked our trip with a tour operator who shuttled us from our hotel to Hanauma Bay and provided us with all of our snorkeling gear - mask, snorkel, flippers, and vest.
Some of the brief footage I shot underwater at Hanauma Bay.
This month I enjoyed a dream vacation with my family to Oahu, Hawaii. It's been years since I've traveled abroad with my parents and siblings, hence we decided to really make this trip count. We all stayed at the same hotel on Waikiki Beach in Honolulu, and from there enjoyed a full week of wining, dining, and unforgettable adventures. I didn't film too much, but I wanted to capture enough to create a brief promo for the photo series I'll be sharing in the weeks ahead. From sailing on the ocean to a beachfront luau, we made time for all of the classic Hawaiian activities. On a day away from the family I arranged to rent myself a $200K Bentley Continental GTC to road trip around Oahu. All things combined, it was an amazing week with my family that I won't soon forget.
Stay tuned for the new photo series in the weeks ahead, and in the meantime check out my new video featuring sunset sails, hula and fire dancers, and winding coastal roads through paradise.
I had a great Christmas this year. After a week long run of get-togethers with family and friends, lots of food, and some generous gifts, I'm feeling exhausted, but happy. Here are a few of my snapshots of the festivities (including the Christmas tree at Hollywood and Highland from my road trip a few weeks ago). For more, you can follow my Instagram feed here.
Last weekend our family spent the night in Rosebud, Alberta for dinner and a show at the Rosebud Theatre. The Rosebud School of the Arts is located here, and they put on original productions year round. We stayed at the Rosebud Inn, a picturesque bed and breakfast overlooking the river valley. Here are a few visual highlights from our stay in this beautiful little community.
