Some Of The Best Snorkeling Oahu: Snorkel Hanauma Bay, Hawaii
National Geographic Adventures has recently listed snorkeling at Hanauma Bay as the 2nd most renowned aquatic activity in the entire United States!
This is no surprise to Hawaiians, who have long honored this wonderful, semi-circular bay, with its half-mile stretch of white-sand beach and towering palms. Hanauma Bay was a desired fishing location for the Ali’i – Hawaiian royalty – and in the past hundred years, it has been tremendously popular among residents and tourists alike for its beach, reef and huge amount of tropical fish, manta rays and green sea turtles.
Oahu Hanauma Bay Snorkeling Tours to Hanauma Bay let tourists snorkel directly from the shoreline – there are no boats allowed! CPA-certified instructors, who are experts in snorkeling and scuba, as well as experts of the history of the area, the fish and coral, are authorized to take small groups snorkeling, snuba and scuba diving on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. For those new to snorkeling, or who want to fully experience the many wonders of Hanauma Bay with an expert guide, these tours are an ideal option.
In addition to bringing you to and from the most popular Waikiki hotels, Hanauma Bay Oahu Snorkeling includes all snorkel equipment, instruction by a life guard, drinks & snacks, and tram fare. Please don’t forget to bring some cash for the $7.50 entrance fee.
Hanauma Bay was placed as the best beach in the United States in Dr. Beach’s 14th annual rankings of American beaches. One of the main reasons for Dr. Beach’s decision was the great environmental preservationof Hanauma Bay. Tours are not allowed on weekends and Hawaii State Holidays, and Hanauma Bay is closed on Tuesdays for environmental conservation.
Originally formed within a volcanic cone, Hanauma is a marine embayment that is populated with a beautiful coral reef. Hawaii’s state fish, Humuhumunukunukuapua’a, which means triggerfish with a pig-like short snout in Hawaiian, and the parrotfish are only a couple of the 450-plus species of Hawaiian fish that inhabit the beautiful reef. Some of the other tropical fish you will likely see[ while you are] snorkeling include the trumpet fish, Moorish idols, milletseed butterfly fish, yellow tangs, puffer fish and surgeon fish.
Due to its great history of protection, Hanauma Bay remains among the world’s best snorkeling sites, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that it is the best Oahu snorkeling. In 1928, after purchasing Hanauma Bay and Koko Crater from the Bishop estate for $1, the City & County of Honolulu founded Koko Head Regional Park. In 1950, the City & County of Honolulu constructed a road to the beach and built new restrooms and showers in the formerly-named Hanauma Bay Park. For Honolulu residents far and near, it quickly became a preferred fishing and picnicking destination.
By 1967, the State Division of Fish & Game declared the entire bay a Marine Life Conservation District, and prohibited taking coral, marine life, shells, rocks and even sand. Shortly after the establishment of admission fees, locals visited less frequently while snorkeling and feeding fish became extremely well-known among visiting tourists. In 1990, Friends of Hanauma Bay was formed, offering more thorough protection to the delicate Bay’s resources. Now, fish feeding is no longer allowed!
Recently renamed Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve, the City & County of Honolulu administers that part of Hanauma Bay lying above the high tide line, and the State of Hawai’i Dept. of Land & Natural Resources controls the underwater segment. Every year, about a people visit Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve.
