Hanauma Bay - Oa'hu Hawaii

Hanauma Bay - Snorkeling on Oa'hu 
This beautiful marine embayment is formed inside a volcanic cone.  Just south-west of Waikiki, Hanauma Bay is the best and safest place on the Island of Oa'hu to go snorkeling.  Even though tourists flock to this popular spot, it's still a can't miss.  There are an abundance of green sea turtles and small bright marine life.  If you are a local it's free, if you are visiting it will cost you $7.50.  If you haven't been before you will be required to watch a short safety video before descending into the valley and exploring the bay.  Catch the Number 22 bus from Waikiki to avoid the parking fee.
