Scuba Diving in Hawaii
Each of Hawaii's eight main islands have outstanding dive spots with an array of unique marine animals, colorful corals and bizarre lava formations. The four most visited islands are Oahu, Maui, Kauai and Hawaii, they each have their own unique characteristics and dive locations. Lanai, Molokai and Ni'ihau are dived less frequently and offer some unique dives and marine life, although generally recommended for intermediate to advanced divers. If you are interested in diving off Kahoolawe you will need to charter a dive boat. Most diving occurs on the calmer, leeward coasts of all the islands, where visibility often exceeds 100 feet. Dive shops abound with gear rentals, dive trips, lessons and certification.
Five types of underwater habitats—coral reefs, lava tubes, caves and caverns, sandy bottoms, drop-offs and basalt boulders—create Hawaii's underwater terrain.
