    WD - 2 WHVS 4: 2009 Keywords: conservation; coral reefs; environment; marine recreation; preferred practices for good environmental behavior; SCUBA diving, snorkeling, SNUBA diving. Voluntary Standard for Recreational SCUBA diving and Snorkeling Activities in West Hawaii Waters Prepared by: Members of the West Hawaii Community with the assistance of the Coral Reef Alliance. Abstract: This voluntary standard specifies requirements for environmental performance, conservation practices and operational safety that enhance SCUBA and SNUBA diving, and snorkeling activities while minimizing environmental impacts of recreational usage on fragile marine ecosystems in the waters of West Hawaii - particularly near-shore coral reefs, related coastal environments and impacts on marine species such as cetaceans, turtles, monk seals, and other animals. This standard was developed by community members within West Hawaii representing key interest groups with the assistance of the Coral Reef Alliance (CORAL) and the West Hawaii Standards Taskforce (WHST). WHST and CORAL disclaim all liability for its use, application, or adaptation. This standard is subject to revision at any time and must be reviewed every five years and if not revised either reaffirmed or withdrawn.

  • BAHAMAS the ONE and ONLY RESORT Two Tickets to Paradise
    2017 2017 BAHAMAS THE ONE AND ONLY RESORT Two Tickets to Paradise Our gratitude for what you do knows no boundaries. Hubbell Lighting attributes our success to the countless hours you spend helping customers find the right products for every project. That’s why we’ve planned this great escape to the carefree Caribbean to reward you. Our vibrant, festive journey includes 4 nights & 5 days on the tranquil shores of Paradise Island, Bahamas. The itinerary is the perfect blend of indulgence, camaraderie and adventure. Breathtaking sights, decadent accommodations, tropical drinks, golf, shopping, and exhilarating outdoor activities await you. More Than Just Another Pretty Place Just southeast of Florida lie 700 islands, cays, and islets known as the Commonwealth of the Bahamas. The warm and winterless expanse of islands is home primarily to African Americans (90%) who are descendants of freed slaves from Bermuda and the United States. While English is the official language, many Bahamians speak an English based Creole dialect. The culture is rich with the influence of African, Caribbean and European influences. Folklore and legends abound in the colorful islands, including tales of the lost city of Atlantis. Throughout the islands, you’ll be serenaded by African rhythms, Caribbean calypso, English folk songs and the unique Bahamian goombay traditional music, combining African musical traditions with European colonial influences. Junkanoo is uniquely Bahamian and exists nowhere else. It’s an incredibly energetic, colorful parade made up of brightly costumed Bahamians dancing and “rushin” to the music of cowbells, drums, horns and whistles. The popular belief is that John Canoe, an African tribal chief, created Junkanoo when he demanded the right to celebrate with his people even after he was brought to the West Indies as a slave in the 16th century.
