Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Mahukona Beach Park

Mahukona is an excellent dive for those who have a few dives under their belt. The entry is very easy, the parking is good, and there is a hot water shower to alleviate the chills of an hour long dive (the shower pipe runs over the lava, and is heated by the Sun -- very nice!). Since this is still used as a small boat harbor, a dive flag is recommended, as always. Directions: Located on the North West tip of Hawaii on the North Kohala Coast on Highway 270 about 13 miles from the junction of 270 and 19.

Truly an amazingly simple night dive with all kinds of unexpected treats. Upon entry, swam with a two foot squid for a while. The dive is simple as you follow an old anchor chain out and back, but if you dive it on a full moon you hardly even need a light. Saw the largest frogfish you could even imagine. Wonderful!
