Our participant stories

“I felt like a child out there on the reef, just taking it all in and seeing things I probably would have never seen without this experience. So truly grateful.”
-state of Hawaiʻi Office of wellness resilience
“Being in the water just brings me back to my childhood, when everything was so simple. It's just a very healing place for me, and I'm just grateful I got to come and spend the day with everybody, and work through my own personal things.”
-Honolulu EMS
