This nature perserve is by far the best place to take the kids to for snorkeling. Its shallow water and they actually have beautiful native fish swimming. When I lived in Hawaii, this was my favorite place to snorkel. Great for beginner snorkelers. The also have diving which from what I heard was excellent by the locals.

It's a great place to snorkel!! i mean, why pay lots of money for those snorkeling tours that are offered in the island when you can come, pay almost nothing to enter the bay and enjoy the experience of this coral reef? it was one of the best activities we had in Hawaii.

Fortunately i never saw the crowds everybody talks about so i guess 2pm ...

This was by far one of the highlights of my trip. The snorkeling was amazing and super easy for anyone to do. Shallow and clear with tons of fish. This is a must do for anyone who is visiting Honolulu.

We got a tip to go eary (before 8am) and it is free.We boughtour own gear. Watch out for jelly fish 8-10 days after the full moon.

We rode mopeds to the bay. it was so nice. Snorkeling was alot of fun.. Just watch out for the big rocks. Swim out to til they are gone, very sharp..

Hanauma Bay what a great find went there many many times and took all our visitors. Our children loved it. We just couldn't get enough of the beauty. You swim among fish you will only see in Hawaii. The beach is nice and the water is so clear pictures taken with small 10.00 underwater cameras come out georgeous. They are very informative and ...

I have been there twice, the first time was many years ago and I took a bus to get there and then walked about 2 miles to the beach. It was beautiful and it was still a place that mostly just the Islanders went to, we had the beach to ourselves and it was very nice. The second time I went was years later and it was so crowded that we could not ...
