Snorkeling and scuba diving in the clean refreshing waters off of Maui, the Big Island, Kauai, and Oahu in the Hawaiian Islands opens up a wonderland of unique life and color. Snorkeling is safe enough for children to seniors to engage in, scuba diving on the other hand is not suitable for everyone.
It is important that you don't touch or walk on the reef -- coral is a living organism and can be damaged when it gets lots of foot traffic on it. The Hawaiian coral reefs are the home to all of the beautiful fish you will see. View this award winning 7 minute video about Hawaiian Ocean Life and Coral Reef Etiquette.
