Hanauma Bay Snorkel Adventure - Hawaiian Ocean Promotions on OahuDescription: Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve is one of the most popular natural attractions in the world. It is a natural crescent beach in the sunken caldera of an extinct volcano. The bay is protected by the walls of volcanic formation and the waters are pure and clear to provide ideal environment for fish and other marine wild life. The inner reef beach area is a long descent from zero to about 13 feet and perfect for children and casual snorkeling while the outside reef portion is from 13 feet to 30+ feet and good for a fun challenge for more advanced snorkeling.
The City and County of Honolulu started to take necessary steps to protect the bay, and in 2002, they built the Marine Educational Center consisting of marine displays of wild life in the bay, educational video theatre, and other facilities.
Watching the video is mandatory because the City and County of Honolulu tries to inform about the geological and historical background of the bay and at the same time, to educate visitors of the importance to protect Hanauma Bay. Transportation and Snorkel gear provided. $7.50 Admission Fee at Hanauma Bay is not included. *
