You stand on warm sand with a sea scooter humming like an eager companion at your hip. The ocean in front of you breathes—calm pockets of glassy blue interrupted by the slow, rolling swell of the Pacific that dares you to move. In minutes an instructor straps a lightweight Sea Scooter to your hands, gestures seaward, and the reef comes into focus: coral ridges, a flutter of butterflyfish, and the deliberate sweep of a Hawaiian green sea turtle arranging its path through the current.
