While Hanauma Bay might be known for it’s outstanding snorkeling, it’s also the best swimming beach on this side of the island. Besides its outstanding facilities including food, lifeguards, snorkel rentals, and a shuttle service, this beach is a great place for swimmming.

Nearly hidden from everyone’s view, yet in the middle of Halona Beach Cove – the Here to Eternity Beach, there is a long dark lava tube which was formed by rapidly moving lava flows millions of years ago.

This has to be one of the funnest pools on Oahu. For those young at heart, you can “walk the plank” and jump off the flattened telephone poll that acts as a diving board. The water is relatively shallow and has a sandy bottom that gives the place a tropical turqoise look when the sun is out.

Though the water is almost always rough in this area, it’s relatively safe and free from currents under most conditions.

Snorkeling at Makapuu is rare due to conditions, but if you get lucky, you're in for a treat
