Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Koloa Landing
Koloa Landing at Hanaka'ape Bay is a very popular dive site, especially for scuba instruction. The entry is easy, and there is plenty to see to the left and right of the landing.
From Lihu'i heading West on Highway 50, turn left on Highway 520 (Maluhia Road) at mile mark 6.8. After about 3 miles, you'll hit a T in the road at Koloa. Jog right and then an immediate left onto Po'ipu Road, and head South to Po'ipu. At about mile 4.8, take the RIGHT fork. After .2 mile, take the left fork. You'll see the landing in about a tenth of a mile.

Our first dive was around 9am and the surf was already pretty rough. Viz wasn't as good as I thought it would be. Sea life was alright; I spotted one medium sized green turtle that was swimming around. However, by the afternoon time @ 1-2pm it was totally undivable. Viz was non-existent, strong current, etc. Lots of dive groups are with you in the morning and there are no facilities. Bathroom? Food? Water? Fuggetaboutit. Plan ahead!
