Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Isaac Hale Beach Park (Pohoiki)
Isaac Hale is boating, camping, sunning and diving all-in-one! You will find view of a rugged underwater environment here that you will never find on the West side of the Island.
The boat ramp to the left offers a very easy entry. Only attempt this dive after talking to a dive shop about the local conditions. It is best to dive with a guide if you have never dived here before.
Directions: Starting from Hilo Bay, head South on Highway 11 (Kanoelehua Ave) for 7.4 miles to Kea'au. Head South on Highway 130 for 7.5 miles. Make a left on Pahoa Pohoiki Road (132) and travel for 7.3 miles. You will enter the park at the end of the road.

Dove here today, 02/25/2011. This place is actually called Pohoiki. Isaac Hale park is next door. It is mostly a surfing spot. The pictures representing this spot are out-dated. The boat ramp has been totally revamped. This is a VERY popular local hang out. Please be respectful and don't trash the place. As far as the dive, well, today the surge was pretty strong. What you want to do is go out around the jetty and take about a 120 degree heading past the surf (about 100 yards), surface swim then go down. Continue until you reach edge of the wall, then go down. Watch the surge and have fun.
