HANAUMA BAY STATE UNDERWATER PARK
(BACK TO BEACHES)

Located between Diamond Head & Koko Head Crater, just past the areas of Aina Haina and Hawaii Kai. As the road elevates up Koko Head, the Bay will be on your right as the road begins to crest. Parking is limited, so try to get there early. Be patient, a lot of people only stop to take a look & some pictures, then they leave, so keep your eyes open. This is one of Oahu’s natural wonders that must be seen and experienced !!! Hanauma Bay is an excellent place for beginner up to advanced snorkelers. Shallow and calm waters protected by a reef allows for spectacular underwater experience. This location is perfect for children since the Bay conditions are mostly calm year round. Fish food is available for sale at the beach to feed the fish. DO NOT BRING YOUR OWN FISH FOOD !!! On both sides of the Bay is a raised rock ledge that is popular with beach goers and hikers. This is a beautiful hike, but be extremely careful, and wear good soled shoes, and remember that waves have washed people off into the sea!!!
