Before your dive, consider bringing reef-safe sunscreen, a underwater camera, and a dive light if you wish to capture the vibrant life below.
In addition to the colorful reefs, keep an eye out for Hawaiian green sea turtles, various species of coral, and possibly spotted eagle rays. For photographers, the golden hours around sunrise and sunset provide stunning light. Nearby spots such as Queen’s Beach and Ala Moana Beach Park can serve as excellent starting points or relaxation spots post-dive.
