Hanauma Bay, Oahu
This bay is a favorite (and crowded) snorkeling spot. The waters are clear, warm, and calm. Friendly and plentiful fish swim close by. The setting is gorgeous and easy to access. Even in waist deep water, dozens of species of reef and inshore fish common to Hawaiian waters can be seen. Novice snorkelers like to stay in the safe, shallow inner bay. Those with more experience take a passage through the reef to gain access to Witch's Brew, a turbulent cove, and other outer reef areas. Location: Kalanianaole Highway (Route 72) to Koko Head; turn onto the side road near the top of the point.
