Hanauma Bay HI
DescriptionThe characteristic horseshoe shape of Hanauma Bay
HI was formed when the sidewall of a volcano cone
collapsed, letting the ocean flood in. The bay is
absolutely amazing for snorkelling - you can wonder at a
huge variety of colorful marine life which populates a
superb coral reef. Experienced snorkellers and scuba
divers can venture further out into deeper
water.
The picture-perfect beach is lovely for
sunbathing and walking. The more adventurous can
venture onto one of the many hiking trails extending
along coastline and up the hill overlooking the
bay. Hanauma Bay is extremely popular, and in
an attempt to protect the coral the area was nominated a
conservation park in 1967. Further protective measures
were introduced in 1990.
